INDIANAPOLIS, Ind – In an op-ed published today at FoxNews.com, Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill describes as “unthinkable” a recently-enacted New York law legalizing abortion up until the moment before a child’s birth. Under the law, a woman wishing to abort at the last minute must only convince a nurse that a late-term abortion is needed to protect the woman’s health – “likely including (under existing judicial interpretation) her emotional well-being,” as the Attorney General writes.

“Thankfully,” the Attorney General adds, “some states remain havens for genuine equality and civilized treatment of our fellow humans – at least as far as the U.S. Supreme Court will allow. Indiana, for example, not only prohibits abortions after 20 weeks but also prohibits any abortion from being undertaken solely because of the race, sex or disability of the baby.

“Indiana also requires medical personnel to treat all miscarried and aborted babies as fully human; their remains must be cremated or buried rather than treated as mere ‘medical waste.’ These protections ensure that all lives – born and unborn, male and female – are accorded basic human dignity.”

In his op-ed, Attorney General Hill notes that he has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review lower federal court decisions that have enjoined these Indiana statutes promoting “a culture of life.”
