What a 2025 Iowa State Fair!

Our display at the 2025 Iowa State Fair

Once again, Pulse Life Advocates, in conjunction with our allies, Iowa Right to Life, reached thousands of Iowans with a positive pro-life message at the 2025 Iowa State Fair.

From our shared booth, we handed out 8100 fetal baby models to the kids who came to our booth, one of the most important things we do all year. They are so popular that we ran out of them the last day of the fair. (Your financial gift allows us to buy more for next year.)

We even applied 1500 pro-life tattoos to youngsters, three-hundred and fifty more than last year!

If you want to know what Pulse Life Advocates does, we are a large, pro-life presence providing info not readily available on the media or in our schools. 

Abortion Pill survey

Take the Abortion Pill issue. We surveyed 1426 Fair goers with the question:

“Can any Iowan buy the Abortion Pill?” 

What do you think the answer is? One-hundred thirty people said no. They are wrong. Abortion drugs are widely available on-line without seeing a medical provider and are mailed directly through the U.S. Post Office.

These chemical abortions are uniquely traumatic for a woman, because the online abortion industry providers do not prepare them for the very real fact that they will see … and must personally dispose of the remains of her dead child … often times in the toilet.

No meaningful limits

Many Iowans don’t understand that this drug is dangerous and that it has:

• No age requirement

• No in-person medical appointment required

• No physical exam required

• No doctor is required to prescribe

• No parental consent for minors

• No verification of baby’s gestational age

• No follow-up appointment required

• Can be purchased on-line

• Can be purchased by abusive men, woman or human traffickers.

We surveyed another 1642 persons with the question:

“Is the Abortion Pill safe for the mom, baby, and the water supply?”

Out of this group, 130 thought it was safe for the mom. It isn’t.

Forty-nine responders that it was safe for the baby, even though it was designed as an effective drug to starve the baby to death and prematurely expel it from the mom’s body.

And 23 voters thought it was safe for the water supply.

But is it?

According to a recent report by Liberty Counsel Action, an estimated 30-40 tons of fetal remains and abortion pill byproducts are flushed into public water systems annually. 

The report notes that wastewater treatment facilities are not designed to process such remains, raising questions about contamination and oversight. 

Mifepristone acts as an endocrine disruptor by blocking progesterone, a vital fertility hormone.  Related to this is that infertility rates are on the rise and now affect 1 in 6 women.

The report explains:

“Nearly 700,000 times a year in the U.S., women take abortion pills, flushing the resulting remains straight down toilets and into our public water systems,” said Abigail Forman in a broadcast reported by The Vigilant Fox. “Aborted fetuses, some up to two inches long, are being flushed down toilets, clogging pipes, and traumatizing wastewater workers who find them trapped in treatment screens.” 

Pulse distributed this info at the Iowa State Fair to open the eyes of Iowans oblivious to the dangers of the Abortion Pill to women, their babies, and our very water supply.
