In a speech before the National Press Club Tuesday, Iowa Governor and potential Democratic presidential candidate Tom Vilsack sid he would favor tighter restrictions on abortion similar to those recently passed in South Dakota.

The Des Moines Register has more:

“I like to suggest life is the best choice — probably not the only choice but the best choice,” Vilsack, a possible candidate for president in town for the National Governors Association winter meeting, said in response to a question at the event.

He said that in Iowa, he has worked to expand opportunities for adoption and improve pre-natal care and access to preschool, and the number of abortions is on the decline.

Nonetheless, “I obviously do not agree with the approach South Dakota” has taken, Vilsack said.
