8. I wonder how many people in eastern Iowa come to Illinois for abortions.

We're just on the other side of the Mississippi River, and we have the least restrictive abortion laws of any midwestern state. Those statistics are just for abortions performed by clinics in Iowa, so the number of Iowans having abortions is probably even higher.
