Judge Barker\u2019s decision is another example of a court trampling states\u2019 rights when it comes to any measure that protects life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/women-risk-judge-subpar-abortion-indiana-license\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em><strong>Women at risk: Judge lets shoddy abortion chain open in Indiana without license<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Indiana Right to Life and St. Joseph County Right to Life are teaming up for the rally, and enlisting nationally known speakers Destiny\u00a0Herndon-De La Rosa of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newwavefeminists.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener undefined\">New Wave Feminists,<\/a>\u00a0Eric Scheidler of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/prolifeaction.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener undefined\">Pro-Life Action League<\/a>, Lily Hutkowski of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/studentsforlife.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener undefined\">Students for Life<\/a>,\u00a0Mark Harrington of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.createdequal.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener undefined\">Created Equal<\/a>, and\u00a0Ryan Bomberger of the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.theradiancefoundation.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener undefined\">Radiance Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJudge Evans Barker\u2019s ruling undermines state authority and threatens Hoosier moms and families,&#8221; said\u00a0St. Joseph County Right to Life Executive Director Jackie Appleman. &#8220;We\u2019re calling on people of good\u00a0sense around the state to join us in standing against this abuse to human rights and states\u2019 rights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/liveactionnewsonline\/\">\u201cLike\u201d Live Action News on Facebook<\/a>\u00a0for more pro-life news and commentary!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On June 15, several Indiana pro-life organizations will hold a rally for women&#8217;s safety in South Bend.
