Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : "The way Indiana lawmakers moved this bill, hastily and without regard for the people it will impact most, is cruel and out of touch," said Rebecca Gibron, CEO for Planned Parenthood Great Northwest, Hawaii, Alaska, Indiana, Kentucky.
40% : Planned Parenthood called the legislation "an egregious attack on health care in Indiana," and noted that the group's facilities would not be able to provide abortions after it takes effect, even in the circumstance where exceptions are granted.
37% : Other states have banned abortion since then, but have done so through existing trigger laws that were set to take effect once a decision striking Roe came down.
32% :Abortion will soon be banned in the state, but there are some exceptions, including if a pregnant woman's life is at risk.
32% : The new law will make Indiana part of a block of states in the central U.S. where abortion is banned and force those seeking the procedure to travel farther.
