Indiana Abortion Restrictions to Stay in Place While SCOTUS Considers Dobbs
The Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case is a challenge to Mississippi's Gestational Age Act, which protects babies from abortion after they reach 15 weeks gestation. A decision is expected in June.
Judge Sarah Evans Barker issued a ruling in August of last year that allowed some of Indiana's pro-life provisions to be enforced, but it placed injunctions against others. One provision that was allowed prohibits non-doctors from performing first-trimester aspiration abortions. Five provisions are currently being blocked, however:
- a ban against non-doctors from prescribing abortion pills
- a requirement that second-trimester abortions only occur at hospitals or ambulatory surgery centers
- a requirement that preabortion counseling occur in-person
- a ban against the use of telemedicine to prescribe and distribute abortion pills
- a requirement that women receive in-person examinations before having abortions

NYT Report Says Many Prenatal Tests for Genetic Conditions are Inaccurate
The Times went as far as to say that the positive results from these tests "are usually wrong." Their investigation found that positive results from the tests analyzed were wrong about 85% of the time.
The NYT interviewed researchers and used results from multiple studies “to produce the best estimates available of how well the five most common microdeletion tests perform.” These tests checked for DiGeorge syndrome, 1p36 deletion, Cri-du-chat syndrome, Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, and Prader-Willi and Angelman syndromes.
The NYT wrote that the FDA does not regulate these tests. The companies that provide them profit from testing for exceedingly rare conditions that should not require testing. Additionally, these tests proliferate a culture that devalues the lives of those with genetic abnormalities. All lives, born and unborn, have value. A diagnosis with a genetic condition does not change this.

New Hampshire Late-Term Abortion Ban Goes Into Effect
Titled, The Family Life Protection Act, the law prohibits abortion after 24 weeks except when the mother's health is at risk. The law does not include exceptions for rape, incest, or prenatal diagnosis. Additionally, the law will require women to have an ultrasound prior to an abortion procedure. Abortionists who violate the law could face up to seven years in prison.
The ultrasound procedure not only gives pregnant mothers the opportunity to see their children and understand their humanity, but it also protects women from dangerous situations in which an undiagnosed pregnancy condition could make an abortion procedure deadly for both her and her child.
This law protects babies who can survive outside of the womb. With medical intervention, babies have survived outside of the womb as early as 21 weeks.
