<\/div>

A philanthropist<\/a> who admittedly helped to purchase a building for Planned Parenthood to operate an abortion facility is now running for Governor of Iowa. Democrat Fred Hubbell is opposing incumbent Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds (R), who recently signed<\/a> the state’s Heartbeat Bill. As the state’s previous Lt. Governor, Reynolds assumed the office after Governor Terry Branstad left to take a position<\/a> with the Trump Administration as Ambassador to China.<\/p>\n

Hubbell’s campaign website<\/a> is open about his support<\/a> of the abortion corporation, despite records<\/a>\u00a0(including court documents) showing that Planned Parenthood\u00a0covers up<\/a> for\u00a0child sexual abusers. His website reads, “For over thirty years, Fred has worked to increase access to quality, affordable health care for every Iowan through his work with Planned Parenthood, and serving as chair of the Mid-Iowa organization in 1984….”<\/p>\n

He even boasted of his connection to the abortion corporation in his first political ad<\/a>, “Stand Strong.”<\/p>\n
