Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita issued this statement on Thursday regarding the actions his office will take in defending Senate Bill 1 in the new lawsuit.
Rokita
“The Left can’t stand a culture of life, along with all the progress and protections secured by the pro-life movement. Hoosiers respect and value all lives, including the lives of the unborn. The ACLU and Planned Parenthood push back every time there is a win for liberty, and my office will not back down in the fight to protect our future generations. The Indiana Constitution says nothing about securing the right to abortion, which the state outlawed before, during, and after the time of constitutional adoption. The text, history, and structure of our Constitution excludes any serious argument that abortion is a fundamental right in our state.”
