We are fighting for a future with full reproductive freedom for all—no matter who you are, where you live, or how much you make. We believe no one is free until we all control our own bodies, lives, and futures. That’s why Planned Parenthood Advocates of Iowa PAC will do everything in our power to get voters to send champions for sexual and reproductive health to office at every level of government.
Make a plan to elect Planned Parenthood champions up and down the ballot.
Vote for Reproductive and Sexual Health Champions by Nov. 5

We Decide with Our Vote
For politicians who want to ban all abortions, the near-total abortion ban passed during an unprecedented, one-day special session was just a warm-up lap. The end goal has always been full control of our bodies and our medical decisions. But we decide our futures, not out-of-touch politicians. They’re hellbent on taking away our power to control our bodies, lives, and futures.
All the freedoms we’ve fought for are on the line this year, and WE DECIDE what comes next. At no point during pregnancy are politicians more qualified to make personal medical decisions than a patient and their doctor. We are fighting to elect unapologetic supporters of reproductive freedom, up and down the ballot, who are with us and unafraid to boldly represent the growing majority of Iowans who support safe and legal abortion. We demand the power to decide what’s best for our bodies, our lives, and our futures.
Eddie Andrews is one of the most extreme Iowa politicians when it comes to abortion while disguising himself as a moderate to Iowans. Since his election to the Iowa House, Andrews has consistently pushed for and supported legislation aimed at severely restricting abortion access, disregarding the fact that a growing majority of Iowans support safe and legal abortion.1 Andrews voted to ban abortion before most people know they are pregnant 2 and voted against protecting children 12 and under from carrying pregnancies to term.3 Andrews will not stop there. He voted to support “fetal personhood” which would put invitro fertilization (IVF) and some forms of contraception at risk.4 He supports a total ban on abortion with no exceptions.5
Matt Blake is a veteran, father, attorney for the Iowa National Guard, and served as a city council member in Urbandale. With a robust background in public service and community leadership, Matt is committed to fighting for a better Iowa focusing on key issues such as education, health care, and economic development. Blake supports comprehensive sex education, access to contraception, and the protection of abortion rights. He pledges to “fight like hell for Iowans' rights to make their own health care decisions about their own bodies.”1
All the freedoms we've fought for are on the line this year, and WE DECIDE what comes next. This election, pledge to vote for candidates who will:
support Iowans' right to safe, legal abortion.
expand birth control access.
restore family planning program funding.
champion sex education that is medically-accurate and inclusive.
build better future for all Iowans.
Take the pledge to vote for Planned Parenthood Advocates of Iowa PAC endorsed champions up and down the ballot.
Thank you!
We'll be in touch soon with more ways you can get involved, stay in touch, and be an advocate for reproductive health and rights. It's good to know we have supporters like you standing with us.
