Satanic Temple sues Indiana over abortion law, claiming it violates religious rights
Indiana has had two groups file against the abortion law claiming it violates religious rights. The "Satanic" group mentioned in the headline and a Jewish group listed in the article.
It appears to be the second lawsuit filed this month that challenges the restrictions on the grounds of religious freedoms. Five Hoosier women and a religious abortion-rights group called Hoosier Jews for Choice sued the state earlier in September with support from the ACLU of Indiana. They claimed the abortion law violates Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act from 2015.
The Satanic Temple makes that same argument in its lawsuit, on top of allegations that the law infringes on various rights granted to its members in Indiana by the U.S. Constitution
The use of "Satanic" in the headline says a lot about Indiana.
