Iowa, people. Iowa doesn't want to further restrict a woman's right to an abortion.The Iowa Supreme Court on Friday blocked a law requiring a 72-hour waiting period before a woman can get an abortion.
The court ruled that the law violates the Iowa Constitution, siding with a lawsuit filed by Planned Parenthood of Iowa and the American Civil Liberties Union of Iowa. The organizations sued the state over the law approved by lawmakers last year.
[...]
Planned Parenthood argued that the court “should join the high courts in numerous other states that have found that the right to choose abortion warrants greater protection than has been afforded under the federal Constitution.” The organization said supreme courts in 12 states had made such rulings.

I'm pretty sure these conservative states don't want to ban abortion because their men don't want to pay child support, but whatever the reason, I don't think the right to abortion is going to be seriously curtailed in this country.
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
