Indiana Senate Committee Takes Up Controversial Abortion Reversal Protocol Measure

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A bill requiring Indiana doctors to tell women undergoing drug-induced abortions about a disputed treatment that could stop the abortion process is a step closer to approval in the Republican-dominated Legislature. The state Senate’s health committee voted 7-4 Wednesday to advance the proposal despite objections that it would force doctors to provide dubious information. Abortion opponents argue the bill ensures that women who may change their minds about ending their pregnancies have information about stopping the process The Indiana House voted last month in favor of the bill. It now goes to the full state Senate, which has a strong anti-abortion majority.
