Governor Reynolds has expressed her intention to sign the bill on Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8220;The Iowa Supreme Court questioned whether this legislature would pass the same law they did in 2018, and today they have a clear answer. The voices of Iowans and their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/flashback-in-2013-trudeau-chose-communist-china-as-country-he-most-admired-besides-canada\/\" title=\"FLASHBACK: In 2013, Trudeau Chose Communist China As Country He Most Admired Besides Canada\">democratically elected representatives<\/a> cannot be ignored any longer, and justice for the unborn should not be delayed,&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The bill includes exceptions in cases of rape or incest. Governor Reynolds, a pro-life advocate, emphasized her commitment to supporting women in planning for motherhood, promoting the importance of fatherhood, and encouraging strong families.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The bill passed with a vote of 56-34 in the House and 32-17 in the Senate, receiving strong support from Republicans and opposition from Democrats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Republican state Senator Amy Sinclair passionately defended the bill, stating, &#8220;This bill ensures all life is protected when a heartbeat is detected. The child in her mother&#8217;s womb has her own heartbeat, her own DNA. She&#8217;s a baby, and she deserves the same protections as any other baby in the state.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The passing of the bill was accompanied by heated debates among legislators and protests within the Capitol. Democratic Senator Liz Bennett expressed her disagreement with Senator Sinclair&#8217;s remarks, leading to a call for decorum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Videos from the Capitol captured the intensity of the situation, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/this-is-not-over-biden-reacts-to-the-end-of-roe\/\" title=\"\u2018This Is Not Over\u2019: Biden Reacts To The End Of Roe\">pro-abortion protesters chanting<\/a> and yelling at Iowa lawmakers. Another video showed a verbal confrontation between Pastor Michael Shover and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/iowa-passes-special-session-heartbeat-bill-amid-raucous-protests-at-capitol\/\" title=\"Iowa passes controversial heartbeat bill amidst protests at Capitol.\">woman supporting abortion rights<\/a>, highlighting the deep divide on this issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Iowa Supreme Court had previously struck down the 2018 Heartbeat Bill, stating that it could not be implemented under <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em>. The passage of this new bill signifies the legislature&#8217;s determination to address the matter once again.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iowa lawmakers recently approved a bill prohibiting abortions once a fetal heartbeat is detectable, typically at around six weeks of pregnancy.
