INDIANAPOLIS (Jan. 22, 2025) — Indiana Right to Life President and Chief Executive Officer Mike Fichter issued the following statement today regarding Governor Mike Braun’s executive order directing the Indiana Department of Health to ensure compliance with Indiana abortion laws.

“Governor Braun’s action today ensures Indiana’s abortion law will be enforced under his administration. In directing the Indiana Department of Health to ensure compliance with pro-life laws, including reporting laws, abortion providers are on notice that there is no tolerance in Indiana for illegal abortions, or acts leading to the injury or deaths of women. We are thankful for Governor Braun’s swift and decisive move in support of Indiana’s law that has ended 98% of abortions in our state.”
