Attorney General Todd Rokita Secures Third Victory In Upholding Indiana Laws Protecting Unborn Life

attorney general

Attorney General Todd Rokita on Monday secured Indiana’s third court victory this month in defense of state laws protecting the lives of unborn children and the health of their mothers.

This time, a U.S. district court has vacated a judgment against an Indiana law prohibiting abortions sought on the basis of the unborn child’s race, sex or disability.

“There is something particularly repugnant about discriminating against a child because of his or her race, sex or disability,” Attorney General Rokita said. “To choose to end a child’s life on that basis while he or she is still in the womb is especially tragic. Hoosiers can be grateful that Indiana is now free to enforce a law rooted in common sense, compassion and justice.”

On July 7, Attorney General Rokita achieved another historic pro-life legal win when a federal district court granted his motion to lift an injunction on dismemberment abortions, which occur well into an unborn baby’s development.

Then, on July 11, a U.S. appellate court vacated judgments in the Whole Woman’s Health Alliance v. Rokita case that had invalidated several other Indiana laws protecting unborn children and the health of their mothers.

Documents from Monday’s court actions are attached.

You will note that Indiana will soon begin offering 988 service to those who are contemplating suicide or facing a personal mental health crisis.

The new 988 service was available nationwide as of July 16, 2022, and will offer direct mental health assistance to those who are in emotional distress and require immediate attention.

The current Lifeline phone number (1-800-273-8255) will remain available to individuals who are facing any mental health crisis. The Lifeline and 988 phone number services are a product of the National Suicide Lifeline network.

If I can be of assistance in any way, please contact my office.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. — University of Southern Indiana Baseball will host Kent State University for the third  Westside Nutclub #CureFA exhibition game on October 22 at the USI Baseball Field. The 2 p.m. exhibition game will benefit the fight against Friedreich’s Ataxia (FA), a degenerative neuro-muscular disorder that affects one in 50,000 people in the United States.
 
Most individuals have onset of symptoms of FA between the ages of 5 and 18 years but can occur anytime during adulthood. The Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance is supporting research that will improve the quality and length of life for those diagnosed with FA and will lead to treatments that eliminate its symptoms. More information about FA can be found at CureFA.org.
 
Tickets for the exhibition game go on sale on September 12 are $10 for adults and $5 for students and can be purchased at the following locations: USI Athletics and all Banterra Bank Evansville/Newburgh locations. Fans also can purchase tickets online at curefa.org/USIBaseball.
 
The game will preview the 2023 USI Screaming Eagles, who will be concluding their fall workouts after a 21-28 mark in 2022. USI is transitioning to the NCAA Division I after dominating Division II for the last 16 years with two national championships and five NCAA II Midwest Regional titles under the direction of Head Coach Tracy Archuleta. Archuleta is in his 17th season at the helm and has a 527-313 (.635) and directed the Eagles to both of their national championships. 

Kent State, under the direction of new Head Coach Jeff Duncan, was 24-29 before the Mid-American Conference Tournament ended the season.
