A pro-life law in Indiana was blocked by Owen County Judge Kelsey Hanlon, after it had been in effect for just one week. The Indiana law protected most preborn children from abortion, though it permitted abortion up to 10 weeks in cases of rape and incest, to protect the health of the mother (though intentional killing is not medically necessary), and in cases where the preborn child was diagnosed with a lethal anomaly. It also required that abortions be committed only in hospitals or surgical centers, instead of in standalone abortion facilities. Lawsuits were filed by both Planned Parenthood and the ACLU, and Hanlon ruled in their favor, putting an injunction in place to block the law. According to the Associated Press (AP), abortion facilities are already preparing to begin committing abortions again. “People are getting the word that abortion is now legal again, and people are ready to get… Read more »

Pro-Life states are gearing up for a lawsuit against the Biden administration after Joe Biden finalized a plan to turn VA hospitals into abortion clinics. The Department of Veterans Affairs said it plans to kill babies in abortions in cases of rape or incest or in cases where the mother’s life or health is in danger, even though doctors repeatedly say abortions are never medically necessary. But, states like Alabama and Arkansas will likely be leading the way in defending their abortion bans from the federal government usurping them by authorizing VA hospitals to sell dangerous abortion drugs or do surgical abortions ending the lives of unborn children. Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall said last week he would enforce his state’s abortion ban, which outlaws all abortions except in cases that threaten the life of the pregnant person, against any practitioner who violates it. “I have no intention of abdicating… Read more »

Indiana’s new abortion ban goes into effect today — helping women and saving babies from abortions. Indiana Right to Life CEO Mike Fichter told LifeNews the abortion ban was a long time coming. He celebrated the day today but also mourned the loss of almost 500,000 babies killed in abortions in Indiana since Roe v. Wade. “Today marks a new opportunity for all of us in Indiana to come together to show true love and compassion for pregnant mothers and their unborn babies. It’s taken 50 years, and the loss of over 500,000 lives to abortion in Indiana alone, to finally arrive at this day,” he said. He said he hoped the law would bring people together to protect pregnant women and their unborn babies. Fichter added: “This historic moment is not about who wins and who loses, or about mere politics and court battles, but about a fresh new… Read more »

Joe Biden celebrated abortions over the weekend and slammed Indiana, the latest state to protect the lives of babies before birth. The Indiana legislature has become the first in the nation to pass an abortion ban after the Supreme Court overturned Roe. The measure went to Republican Gov. Eric Holcomb, who signed the bill into law almost immediately on Friday night. In response, the White House released a statement on Biden’s behalf promoting abortion and condemning the Hoosier state, calling the pro-life law “another radical step by Republican legislators to take away women’s reproductive rights and freedom.” “The Indiana Legislature took a devastating step as a result of the Supreme Court’s extreme decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and eliminate women’s constitutionally protected right to abortion,” Biden said in the full statement. The added that the pro-life law would “put personal health care decisions in the hands of politicians rather… Read more »
