At midnight, abortion restrictions in Indiana began. On the eve of the change, a vigil was held in Bloomington at the Monroe County Courthouse.
BLOOMINGTON — Just hours before Indiana's near-total abortion ban was set to go into effect, women gathered at the Monroe County Courthouse to mourn.
Emotions are running high, so Shifriss helped organize 'We Are Hoosiers: A vigil for reproductive rights.' About 50 people came to the vigil. Some brought banners and signs, but most just carried heavy hearts. Elly Cohen, co-chair of Hoosier Jews for Choice, also helped the vigil come together. She said it's an opportunity for people to grieve, but also a chance to mobilize.
