INDIANAPOLIS (AP): An Indiana lawmaker says he will propose legislation effectively banning abortion in the state, despite a U.S. Supreme Court ruling declaring it unconstitutional.

State Rep. Curt Nisly, a Republican from Goshen, says he’ll sponsor the bill when the Legislature meets in January.

Abortion-rights groups are certain to oppose the measure, and it is doubtful that it will advance in the statehouse.

However, anti-abortion groups are emboldened by Donald Trump’s election and hope the Republican president-elect will appoint Supreme Court justices who will overturn the landmark abortion ruling Roe v. Wade.

Social conservative activist Monica Boyer says now is the time to push for legislation like Nisly’s. She and other abortion opponents hope a court challenge over such a law will reach the Supreme Court.
