Stop Indiana from Classifying Abortion as Homicide

The Issue

House Bill 1334 is one of the most dangerous pieces of legislation Indiana has ever seen — and it must be stopped.

This extreme bill would define abortion as murder under Indiana law, allowing people who seek or provide abortions to be prosecuted and even face the death penalty. It would criminalize essential healthcare and turn pregnancy into a life-or-death legal risk.

The bill claims life begins at the moment an egg is fertilized, meaning women could be investigated, arrested, and executed for making deeply personal medical decisions. Doctors could be criminalized for providing care. Survivors of rape or medical emergencies could be retraumatized by the justice system.

This is not about protecting life — it’s about controlling it. It’s about replacing healthcare with handcuffs.

At a time when reproductive rights are already under relentless attack across the country, Indiana lawmakers are pushing cruelty beyond imagination. We must speak out now, before this nightmare becomes reality.

We demand that the Indiana legislature immediately reject House Bill 1334 and protect the rights, health, and safety of every person in the state.

No one should face a death sentence for seeking healthcare. No one should live in fear because of a pregnancy.
