Federal judge weighs temporary halt on Iowa abortion notification law
A federal judge in Des Moines is expected to rule today on halting enforcement of Iowa’s new abortion notification law for minors. Planned Parenthood and the ACLU argue the statute is vague and unconstitutional, while state officials urge denial of injunctive relief. The order could sever unconstitutional sections and let the rest stand. The case hinges on parental or guardian notification 48 hours before procedures with limited exceptions. A temporary restraining order decision is due today, with a January hearing to address broader constitutional issues.
