A local rabbi tells KaitlynReports if Indiana were to ban abortion entirely, it would be against the Jewish religion.
The Jewish community is expressing concern after Roe v. Wade was overturned.
The future of abortion in Indiana is still unclear, but Krichiver says his congregation is already talking about what happens if Indiana completely outlaws abortion. "What we're talking about is a family or a mother who is in a very difficult situation and needs to make an impossible choice. We need to be able to be there for her, to support her, to advocate for her rights to her bodily autonomy and to her mental health," Kirchiver said."What legislators need to understand is that what this looks like from other religious traditions is the favoring of one religious tradition over another.
As of right now, abortion is legal in Indiana, but changes are possible. That's because tomorrow, a special legislative session to address Indiana's abortion laws will technically begin.
