On Wednesday, Governor Mike Braun released the report he commissioned in Executive Order 25-20 regarding the proper implementation of Indiana’s pro-life laws.

“Indiana is a state that supports Life, and the people’s representatives have enshrined those protections for the unborn into state law. We are taking the necessary steps to make sure those laws are properly implemented.” - Governor Mike Braun

Aligned with his constitutional mandate to faithfully execute Indiana’s laws, Governor Mike Braun signed Executive Order 25-20, which in part commissioned an evaluation of how Indiana’s pro-life policies are being implemented.

The report outlines how the Indiana Department of Health is implementing Indiana’s laws, and also identifies areas for policy change to ensure full compliance.

The report also outlines public transparency measures related to Terminated Pregnancy Reports, or TPRs, which offer insight into abortion trends and compliance by providers while protecting patient confidentiality. Indiana’s laws requires that health care providers must submit a TPR to the Indiana Department of Health each time an abortion is performed, intended both to compile important data about maternal health which can be used to improve women’s health policies, and also to ensure compliance with Indiana law.
