Indiana legislative leaders indicated Thursday the General Assembly will likely hold off on any major anti-abortion legislation this session.

An Indiana anti-abortion law that requires doctors to report a long list of supposed complications from abortion is taking effect.

The ruling from last month by federal Judge Sarah Evans Barker said that several abortion regulations were unconstitutional.

A top state Republican lawmaker has already promised to push a ban on abortions after six weeks modeled after a Texas law that the U.S. Supreme Court refused to block this week.

Some Indiana anti-abortion activists are sounding a note of cautious optimism about the future of restricting abortion in the Hoosier State.

Several major Indiana abortion laws were struck down in federal court on Tuesday. The case was brought by the Whole Woman's Health Alliance, which operates an abortion clinic in South Bend.

The Indiana attorney general's office has started an appeal of a federal judge's ruling that several state laws restricting abortion are unconstitutional, including the state's ban on telemedicine consultations between doctors and women seeking abortions.

The decision came in a lawsuit brought by, among others, health care provider Whole Woman’s Health Alliance, which challenged most of the state’s abortion regulations.

Indiana abortion providers took another step this week in their effort to strike down many of the state's abortion regulations.

At issue is a new law, HB 1577, which forces doctors to tell patients about a so-called “abortion reversal” protocol that could purportedly halt the effects of a medication abortion after taking the first of two abortion-inducing drugs.
