In a statement to LifeSiteNews after the pro-life victory, Maggie DeWitte, executive director of Pulse Life Advocates (PLA), founded in 1972 and now one of the longest standing pro-life organizations in Iowa, celebrated the closure and called for renewed efforts to end all abortions in the state. DeWitte said:

We are overjoyed at the closing of the Planned Parenthood clinic on the southside of Des Moines. Pulse Life Advocates, Iowa's longest-standing, statewide, pro-life organization, has organized hundreds of prayer vigils at this clinic over the years since its founding in 1972. We know the power of prayer and so many Iowans have lifted up thousands of prayers for the closure of this clinic. Women will no longer be harmed and babies will no longer be killed at this location and we are thanking and praising God for this victory!

But while we celebrate this win, we look to the other abortion mills operating in Iowa and will turn our efforts toward getting those closed as well. And we will continue to pray, educate, and take action until we no longer have abortion in our state and in our country.

PLA told LifeNews that "the closing represents a culmination of years of prayers by faithful pro-lifers at this very location."

"If you were one of the faithful who joined us, you know how the North wind that swept down upon us was particularly cruel, seemingly taunting us as we prayed. And the hot summer months presented a different form of discomfort. But it was all worth it! God listened and answered our prayers with this closing," PLA said...
