Iowa coalition again pushes personhood bill for abortion clash
Coalition leaders say they will push Senate File 253 in the 2018 Iowa Legislature to declare life begins at conception, a move critics warn would restrict birth control and risk broader rights. Drew Zahn and Scott Valencia frame the effort as a two year campaign to pressure lawmakers and the governor, with a score card planned to track votes for next elections.
