INDIANAPOLIS - The Indiana Special Session continues into its second week.
On Saturday, the Indiana Senate passed Senate Bill 1. The final vote was 26-20, narrowly passing the bill with the minimum of 26 votes needed to send it to the House. This bill would ban nearly all abortions in the state. There would be some exceptions including rape, incest, and when the mother's life is at risk.
There were many mixed feelings at the Indiana Statehouse on Saturday. Hundreds of Hoosiers came out to either protest or celebrate the decision.
Senate Bill 1 will now move to the House of Representatives for further discussion.
Also at Saturday's session, the Indiana Senate also approved Senate Bill 3. This is the proposed inflation relief bill that saw a final vote of 40 to 4.
Senate Bill 3 will also move to the House of Representatives for further discussion beginning early this week.
