We’re hopeful High Court will hear Dignity for the Unborn Law

The U.S. Supreme Court has placed the Dignity for the Unborn law on its conference calendar for Friday, January 4. The justices will consider the petitions for hearing oral arguments in the case, Kristina Box, Commissioner, Indiana Department of Health et al. v. Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky, Inc., et al.

The Dignity for the Unborn law, signed in 2016 by then-Gov. Mike Pence, bars discriminatory abortions because of the child’s sex, race, national origin or a potential disability like Down syndrome. It also prohibits abortion businesses from disposing of human remains with common medical waste.

The abortion industry wants you to believe Roe v. Wade is settled, but the Dignity for the Unborn law has the potential to shake the foundations of legalized abortion.

By arguing against the Dignity for the Unborn law, Planned Parenthood is advocating for the systematic targeting of classes of unborn children it deems less valuable than others. Planned Parenthood wants to profit off a woman aborting a child because of the child being a girl, or because the child has Down syndrome. That is not what our country is about.

We’re thankful that Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill is willing to fight for the unborn. Last month, he gave an exclusive interview on our radio program about the legal process the Dignity for the Unborn law is going through. We invite you to take a listen.

Join us in praying that the Supreme Court will give the Dignity for the Unborn law its day in court.
