The Indiana abortion ban is saving thousands of babies and helping moms find better choices and options.

The Indiana Department of Health on Friday released its official abortion report for the first quarter of 2024. The report shows 98% decrease in abortions in the first quarter of 2024 (45 abortions) compared to the first quarter of 2023 (1,931 abortions).

This is great news considering Indiana’s abortion ban was blocked for much of 2023 while abortion businesses desperately fought in court to make more money killing babies in abortions.

Under the Indiana abortion ban, abortions are only allowed in very rare circumstances such as saving the life of the mother. The vast majority of reported abortions are reported as being done at Indianapolis’ Riley Health Maternity Tower (22 or 49%) and Sidney & Lois Eskenazi Hospital (14 or 31%).

All reported statistics are currently unverifiable by public review due to the state’s blockage of access to properly redacted abortion report forms.

Currently, the Planned Parenthood abortion business is not happy that it can’t kill babies in the Hoosier State, So it’s asking an Indiana judge to water down the state’s abortion ban so it can resume ending human lives for profit. Indiana law already allows abortions if a mother’s life is at risk and it allows care for miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies. But the abortion giant wants abortions allowed for nebulous “health” reasons – which can be declared anything – thus allowing unlimited abortions.

Indiana became the first state that passed a law to protect unborn babies from abortion after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade on June 24, 2022. The pro-life law bans abortions with exceptions for rape, incest, fatal fetal anomalies and situations when the mother’s life is at risk.

Indiana Right to Life estimates the law will save as many as 150 unborn babies from abortion every week.

Polls consistently show a strong majority of Americans support legal protections for unborn babies, especially after the first trimester or once their heartbeat is detectable. And they show Americns support the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade.
