Iowa joins more than a dozen other states with restrictive abortion laws following the U.S. Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022. Three other states currently ban abortions at about six weeks.
The Iowa Supreme Court said Friday the state's strict abortion law is legal, telling a lower court to dissolve a temporary block on the law and allowing Iowa to ban most abortions after about six weeks of pregnancy — before many women know they are pregnant.The 4-3 ruling is a win for Republican lawmakers, and Iowa joins more than a dozen other states with restrictive abortion laws following the U.S. Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022.
Candace Gibson, director of state policy at the Guttmacher Institute, an organization that advocates for abortion access, said the ruling will force women seeking abortions to either leave Iowa, 'navigate a self-managed abortion,' or carry an unwanted pregnancy to term.'Upholding this six-week ban in Iowa is a shocking blow to Iowans' reproductive autonomy,' Gibson said in a statement.
