Iowa Supreme Court Deliberates on 6-Week Abortion Ban

The court is considering whether to allow the restrictive law to take effect amid ongoing legal challenges.

The Iowa Supreme Court heard arguments on whether to enforce a law banning most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy.
The law includes exceptions for rape, incest, and severe fetal abnormalities, and was signed into law by Governor Kim Reynolds last July.
Legal battles continue as abortion rights advocates argue the law infringes on women’s rights to bodily autonomy.
The court's decision is pending and could have significant implications for abortion access in Iowa.
Nationwide, states like Arizona and Florida are also seeing major legal developments regarding abortion laws.
