A federal judge in Indianapolis struck down several of the state’s abortion laws on Tuesday, ruling that they are unconstitutional, including the ban on telemedicine consultations between doctors and women seeking abortion services.

District Court Judge Sarah Evans Barker, an appointee of former President Ronald Reagan, in her ruling (pdf) also upheld some of the state’s abortion laws that were challenged in a lawsuit by Whole Woman’s Health Alliance and two other abortion providers in 2018.
