Indiana's attorney general says in a brief filed Wednesday that the court should deny Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky's request for a preliminary injunction.

Participants say the protest wasn't really possible before the bill was approved by the General Assembly.

Proponents say the law ensures the dignity of all lives and prevents discrimination against those with disabilities. But Planned Parenthood and the ACLU of Indiana say the measure unconstitutionally violates a woman's privacy.

The new law bans women from getting abortions because of fetal genetic defects, and it prohibit abortions from being performed because of a fetus's race, sex or ancestry. Critics of the legislation -- including some Republican lawmakers -- say it goes too far.

Gov. Mike Pence says he's still considering whether to sign a bill that bars women from having abortions solely because of a fetus' potential disability.

The House sent a bill Wednesday to the governor that bans abortions performed solely because of a fetus' sex, race or disability.

A bill placing restrictions on abortions passed through the Senate with opposition from Democrats and three Republicans.

Senate Bill 313 -- banning abortions based on race, gender or disability -- passed the full Senate earlier this session, but it couldn't get a hearing in the House. So, a Senate committee revived 313 in the form of an amendment to a House bill that deals with the disposal of fetal tissue.

A bill currently moving through the Indiana legislature would require all fetal remains to be cremated, interred, or both.

The state senate passed a bill that would bar women from aborting a pregnancy based on the fetus' race, gender or disability.
