“Iowa adult women should have access to safe birth control options regardless of their zipcode. Ensuring safe birth control options are available over the counter at local pharmacies for adult women is common sense. So is ensuring women can access long-lasting birth control options like arm implants or IUDs safely and conveniently at a community health center. I will keep working to ensure Iowa women can access safe birth control.” – Congresswoman Ashley Hinson

Hinson reiterated a commitment to keep working so Iowa women can access safe birth control, specifically including long-lasting options such as arm implants and IUDs at community health centers.

The available evidence does not show Hinson supporting or advancing legislation specifically aimed at expanding access to long-acting reversible contraception such as IUDs or arm implants. The clearest documented action is her support for over-the-counter access to birth control pills, which is related to contraception access generally but does not satisfy the narrower LARC-focused promise. Because she took adjacent action on contraception policy without evidence of delivery on the specific promised policy, partial credit is the best fit.
