Iowa Supreme Court Keeps Heartbeat Abortion Law In Effect
The Iowa Supreme Court upheld the 2023 fetal heartbeat law and remanded for further actions, deciding the law is rationally related to protecting unborn life and that abortion is not a fundamental right in Iowa. The ruling maintains a six to ten week ban with exceptions for rape, incest, medical emergencies, and life-threatening conditions, while lower courts review injunctions and case details.
