Supreme Court upholds Indiana abortion law requiring fetal remains be buried or cremated
The justices left lower court rulings intact that invalidated a broader measure that would prevent a woman from having an abortion based on gender, race or disability.
Passed in 2016 and signed by then-Gov. Mike Pence, the law prohibited what the state called discriminatory abortions — those sought because of characteristics of the fetus, including gender, race, or diagnosis of Down syndrome or other defect. Supporters of the measure said the law responded to medical developments that allow women to choose which child to bear, an option the state said was not contemplated at the time of the Roe decision.
