New laws affecting home-based vendors, healthcare licenses and more are now in effect in Indiana.
Among the laws going into effect include gun rights, abortion rights, tax rate changes, changes to bail, rape definitions and the transgender sports bill.The new law carried over the rules about who cannot carry handguns, including people with felonies on their record.
The future of abortions in Indiana is uncertain at the time, but starting July 1 doctors must ask the woman if they are being coerced into the abortion. This law may change following the special session.Legislators reworked the definition of rape within the law and it will go into effect on July 1. Rep. Sharon Negele, R-Attica, filed House Bill 1079 to show that someone can deny consent through their words or actions.
Among the changes under the bill, charitable bail organizations will have to register with the Indiana Department of Insurance and can only assist people charged with misdemeanors and non-violent felonies as long as the accused has never been previously convicted of a violent felony. The Indiana Hospital Association says before the law, the process to receive licenses was extensive, which isn't helping the current health care worker shortage.
The certification then needs to be submitted to the local health department. The menu that home based vendors are allowed to sell from has not changed.
