(Radio Iowa) – Vice President Kamala Harris is making an Iowa law that took effect this (Monday) morning part of her campaign against former President Donald Trump. “Today Iowa put in place a Trump abortion ban, which makes Iowa the 22nd state in our country to have a Trump abortion ban,” Harris said in a campaign video, “and this ban is going to take effect before many women even know they’re pregnant.” Iowa’s law bans abortion after fetal activity can be detected, which is around the sixth week of a pregnancy.

“One in three women of reproductive age in America lives in a state with a Trump abortion ban,” Harris said, “so what we need to do is vote ’cause I’m going to tell you something, when I am president of the United States, I will sign into law the protections for reproductive freedom.”

Trump held a rally in Minnesota on Saturday and called Harris “an absolute radical on abortion.” Trump appointed three of the six U-S Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe v Wade in 2022 and Trump has said the ruling leaves it up to states to decide abortion policy.

For the past 40 years, the G-O-P’s national platform had called for federal restrictions on abortion, but Trump’s campaign led development of the party platform for 2024 that says the abortion issue should be left to the states.
