 The Iowa Supreme Court has ruled a law that bans abortions as early as six weeks of pregnancy can go into effect. According to IPR, it will take the law at least 21 days to go into effect, as it will need to go back to the district court for a final decision. Until then, abortions will remain legal in Iowa up to 20 weeks of pregnancy. In a 4-3 decision, the Iowa Supreme Court overturned a lower court's ruling, which issued a temporary injunction blocking the law from going into effect.
