Iowa joins more than a dozen GOP-led states to pass abortion restrictions following the U.S. Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade.

The Iowa Legislature has passed a bill that would ban nearly all abortions after roughly six weeks of pregnancy, with Gov. Kim Reynolds announcing she will sign the measure Friday.

The ban will go into effect with her signature, requiring healthcare providers to comply immediately. Shortly after 11 p.m., the Senate voted 32-17 to pass the legislation.

The vote, punctuated by boos and shouts of "shame" from onlookers, came two hours after the House passed the bill in a 56-34 vote.
