INDIANAPOLIS (July 3, 2025) \u2013 The office of Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita motioned today for the U.S. Seventh Circuit to vacate a 2012 permanent injunction blocking Indiana from keeping Medicaid dollars from Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brief accompanying the motion states:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJust last week, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected the premise underlying this Court\u2019s injunction: It held that Planned Parenthood cannot enforce Medicaid\u2019s any-qualified-provider provision in federal court against a State that withdraws subsidies for abortion. See Medina v. Planned Parenthood S. Atl., No. 23-1275, 2025 WL 1758505, at *11 (U.S. June 26, 2025). With that change in the law, this Court\u2019s judgment and injunction in Planned Parenthood\u2019s favor can no longer stand.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brief concludes with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis Court should vacate the permanent injunction and judgment, and \u2018promptly\u2019 return to Indiana the power to enforce its duly enacted laws.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are thankful for the attorney general\u2019s quick action in seeking the removal of the 2012 injunction,\u201d states Indiana Right to Life President and CEO Mike Fichter. \u201cIndiana became the first state in the nation to remove Medicaid funding from Planned Parenthood, yet this injunction blocked this defunding from ever taking effect. This opens new opportunities for greater support of life-affirming services helping moms and babies in Indiana.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
