Abortion is currently legal in Iowa up to 22 weeks of pregnancy.
Hundreds of protesters on both sides of the issue packed the Iowa Capitol in Des Moines, some shouting “Bans off our bodies” while others yelled “Abortion is murder.” According to the Des Moines Register, at one point protesters had to be separated by a state trooper.
