Top conservative group unveils full-court press in key battleground state to expose ‘shocking’ Dem platform
FIRST ON FOX - CEDAR RAPIDS, IA : One of the largest pro-life organizations in the country is pouring time and resources into the high-stakes battleground of Iowa, making the case that voters of all backgrounds will be "shocked" to know where the Democratic Party stands on abortion.

Anthony Pro-Life America’s ground game has knocked on over 172,000 doors in Iowa promoting the Republican ticket in the Hawkeye State.
Additionally, the group has a planned digital spend of $650,000 to go along with a $1.35 million spend from the Women Speak Out PAC, SBA’s super PAC, to contact voters in the Iowa universe.
"The scale of SBA Pro-Life America’s voter contact program is among the largest in the nation and certainly the largest in the pro-life movement," SBA President Marjorie Dannenfelser told Fox News Digital.
Fox News Digital was on the ground in Iowa with SBA canvassers in Cedar Rapids on Tuesday, when the team passed out flyers and spoke to voters in support of Iowa Republican Rep.
Ashley Hinson and hammered the abortion positions of Democratic gubernatorial candidate Rob Sand.
TRUMP-ENDORSED HINSON SECURES IOWA SENATE NOMINATION AS DEMOCRATS EYE GOP SEAT "Our goal really is just to inform voters," SBA field rep Amy Elizabeth told Fox News Digital.
"Most people we're finding are pro-life, regardless of the way that they vote and we want to make sure that they're aware of the candidate's views on abortion and pro-life and we wanna make sure they're making knowledgeable and informed decisions when they go to the polls." Literature passed out by the canvassers calls Sand "wrong for Iowa families" while arguing that he will "do everything in his power to overturn Governor Kim Reynolds’ pro-life legacy" and "even supports painful late-term abortions ." The literature also promotes Hinson as the "pro-life champion" that Iowans "need in D.C." Elizabeth told Fox News Digital that the conversations with voters on the ground have been effective.
"Some of my favorite conversations have come from people who normally wouldn't vote the same way that I would vote," Elizabeth explained.
"They're not typically conservative voters.
They are a little bit more liberal-leaning.
But when we really are open to having conversations together, and I can share with them some information about the candidates that they typically would vote for, they are very surprised, and they're very shocked to hear how those candidates feel on some issues that are important to them."
