Iowa Supreme Court Rules on Abortion Access Law.

The Iowa Supreme Court has issued a split decision on a proposed six-week abortion ban, allowing the procedures to remain legal until about the 20th week of pregnancy. The split decision leaves a lower court's decision in place, which had temporarily blocked GOP Gov. Kim Reynolds' effort to reinstate a six-week abortion ban that had been passed in 2018. The ruling could have ramifications in pending decisions in courts in states across the U.S., where six-week bans enacted by conservative state legislatures remain temporarily blocked.
