Iowa Supreme Court Allows Six-Week Abortion Ban to Take Effect on June 28
Jun 28, 2024, 02:06 PM
The Iowa Supreme Court has ruled on Friday, June 28, to allow a law banning most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy to take effect. This decision reverses a temporary injunction on the 2023 law, making Iowa one of the latest states to impose strict abortion restrictions since the U.S. Supreme Court's 2022 decision to end federal protections for abortion. The ruling passed with a narrow 4-3 vote, indicating a divided court. The law, often referred to as a 'fetal heartbeat' abortion ban, will significantly restrict abortion access in the state.
