Let’s give Iowa a cold welcome to the list of absurd states that are trying to ban abortion basically before a person even knows they’re pregnant. Here is a list of states that have tried to pass some kind of fetal heartbeat bill like the one Iowa is now proposing (bros, there are several shitty loopholes you can try to find, but it’s just NOT HERE): Alabama (the first offender), Arkansas (shot down as unconstitutional, see), Kansas (didn’t pass), Kentucky (pending), Mississippi (died in committee), North Dakota (blocked), Ohio (vetoed by the gov), Texas (didn’t pass), Wyoming (didn’t pass). Why did they all fail? BECAUSE THEY ARE UNCONSTITUTIONAL AF!

Anti-abortion bullies are using Donald Trump as the world’s most obnoxious mouthpiece.
