Statement on today’s Iowa Supreme Court ruling on abortion

Today, June 17, 2022, the Iowa Supreme Court ruled that abortion is not a guaranteed right under the state constitution. The Thomas More Society has been actively involved in pro-life legal issues in Iowa for many years. Thomas More Society Senior Counsel Martin Cannon, who resides in Iowa, released the following statement: 

“The Thomas More Society is a founding member of Iowa’s Coalition of Pro-Life Leaders, which has become the dominant pro-life political force in Iowa. Thomas More Society has also been very involved in advising the legislature in drafting and passing the 24-hour waiting period that is at the heart of today’s ruling. This is a huge victory for Iowa’s pro-life movement in which the Thomas More Society has been very active.”
