The Human Life Protection Act,also known as House Bill 314 and the Alabama abortion ban,is an Alabama statute enacted on May 15,2019,that imposes a near-total ban on abortion in the state. Set to go into effect in November 2019,a legal challenge against the bill delayed implementation until 2022. The bill was passed in both chambers of the Alabama Legislature in a party-line vote and signed by Republican governor Kay Ivey. Under the Human Life Protection Act,a doctor who performs a banned abortion in the state of Alabama is guilty of a Class A felony,and could be sentenced to life imprisonment. Several proposed amendments that would have allowed abortions in cases of rape and incest were rejected.
As of 2023,Abortion is currently illegal in Indiana,with exceptions for fatal fetal abnormalities,to preserve the life and physical health of the mother,or in cases of rape or incest. Previously abortion in Indiana was legal up to 20 weeks;a near-total ban that was scheduled to take effect on August 1 was placed on hold due to further legal challenges,but is set to take place,after the Indiana Supreme Court denied an appeal by the ACLU,and once it certifies a previous ruling,that an abortion ban doesn't violate the state constitution. In the wake of the 2022 Dobbs Supreme Court ruling,abortion in Indiana remained legal despite Indiana lawmakers voting in favor of a near-total abortion ban on August 5,2022. Governor Eric Holcomb signed this bill into law the same day. The new law became effective on September 15,2022. But on September 22,2022,Special Judge Kelsey B. Hanlon of the Monroe County Circuit Court granted a preliminary injunction against the enforcement of the ban. Her ruling allows the state's previous abortion law,which allows abortions up to 20 weeks after fertilization with exceptions for rape and incest,to remain in effect.
