| Judge Strikes Down Iowa ‘Heartbeat' Abortion Law |
| 2019-01-24 |
| A human 'heartbeat' really isn't proof of life after all ? [Breitbart] A state judge struck down an Iowa law that banned all abortions from the time a fetal heartbeat could be detected ‐ at about six weeks of pregnancy. Polk County District Court Judge Michael Huppert said the law was unconstitutional and would not be compliant with the Iowa Supreme Court’s earlier decisions that affirm a woman’s right to abortion. In his opinion released Tuesday, Huppert wrote the heartbeat law’s "narrow amount of time afforded [to] women" to have an abortion was not consistent with a "fundamental right," as the state Supreme Court had ruled. |

| #2 In New York state they just passed a law that says a baby can be aborted right up to the moment of birtn. Governor Cuomo ordered the lights on the Empire State building to show pink to "celebrate". |

| #1 Can't have any silly laws get in the way of judicial-opinion rights. |
