The bill passed with exclusively GOP support in a one-day legislative burst lasting 14 hours over vocal objections from Democratic lawmakers and abortion advocates protesting at the Capitol. Iowa Republicans pass bill banning most abortions after 6 weeks:
“The Iowa Supreme Court questioned whether this legislature would pass the same law they did in 2018, and today they have a clear answer," Reynolds said in a statement. "The voices of Iowans and their democratically elected representatives cannot be ignored any longer, and justice for the unborn should not be delayed.”
Preparations were already underway to quickly file legal challenges in court and get the measure blocked, once Reynolds signs it into law. In the meantime, Planned Parenthood North Central States has said they will refer patients out of state if they’re scheduled for abortions in the next few weeks. The organization, the largest abortion provider in the state, will continue to provide care to patients who present before cardiac activity is detected.
