abortion rights

The requirements call for a dashboard that will give immediate information about abortions being performed in Ohio.

Ohio voters approved a sweeping reproductive rights amendment in 2023. Opponents look to a changed Ohio Supreme Court to rein in those rights.

The decision last week by Hamilton County Judge Alison Hatheway came in a case brought by a group of clinics and the ACLU of Ohio. An earlier iteration of the legal challenge had argued that a lack of rules, including whether a death certificate would be required, made complying with the law “impossible.”

The Democratic sponsors of the bill say since the Ohio Legislature has passed many bills to regulate women's reproductive rights, it's only fair to regulate the reproductive freedom of men.

Backers of the bill say some big Ohio cities are giving money to charities in big cities that assist low-income women with reproductive health issues.

A Hamilton County Common Pleas Court Judge ruled Ohio's six-week ban unconstitutional Thursday, but parts of the law can be appealed.

Ohio Republican U.S. Senate candidate Bernie Moreno recently made controversial comments to his supporters about abortion.

In his race to win a fourth term as Ohio’s senator, Democrat Sherrod Brown said his Republican challenger has a hard line against legal abortion at any cost.

Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Alison Hatheway issued a preliminary injunction Aug. 29 that extends an existing order temporarily halting enforcement of a law banning use of telemedicine in medication abortions.

The case was heard in the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas Friday morning.
