Summary
The bill removes Chapters 146C and 146E of the Iowa Code, which currently forbid physicians from performing abortions once a fetal heartbeat is identified. By repealing those sections, abortions would no longer be prohibited at any point in pregnancy. The change directly impacts doctors who provide abortions and patients seeking them.
