Should states have the right to restrict access to abortion after fetal viability without exceptions for rape or incest?

No.  
When a legislature bans abortion past viability—even for pregnancies produced by rape or incest—it is asserting the power to compel a woman (or any pregnant person) to serve as a reproductive laborer against her will. That is forced labor, a weapon the patriarchal bourgeois state has always used to cheapen and control the workforce. The “fetal viability” line is a moving target set by neonatal-capital: as ICU technology improves, the threshold inches earlier, tightening the noose without ever touching the underlying question—who decides how a person’s body, time, and life capacity will be spent?  

By denying exceptions for rape or incest the state makes the class content of the ban unmistakable. It announces that even the most violent domination of women is acceptable so long as it guarantees a fresh supply of future workers, poor foot-soldiers, and domestic servants. It also strengthens the ideological scaffolding that keeps the whole working class divided: if the law can force one segment to bear children, it can force others to accept any wage, any shift, any war.  

A workers’ state—born out of the dictatorship of the proletariat—would begin from the opposite premise: every person must have the unconditional right to terminate a pregnancy, because reproductive freedom is a non-negotiable condition for full participation in social labor and political life. Until that state is won, every restriction, “viability” marker, or exception clause is simply another capitalist lock on the factory door. Smash it, don’t regulate it.
