Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : Johnson is pondering whether to allow enforcement of the abortion ban that was written in anticipation of the U.S. Supreme Court's June 24 decision.
43% : Abortion remains legal in Indiana up to about 20 weeks.
42% : Court battles prompted by the Supreme Court's June 24 ruling reversing abortion rights played out in multiple states Monday, with a judge in West Virginia blocking that state's 150-year-old abortion ban and one in Louisiana leaving an order against enforcement of that state's ban in place, for now.
40% : The lawsuit originated in New Orleans, where a judge issued a temporary order blocking enforcement of the ban June 27.
39% : Women's Health Center lawyers argued the 19th century law is void because it has not been enforced in more than 50 years and has been superseded by a slew of modern laws regulating abortion that acknowledge a woman's right to the procedure.
