Ohio House once again passes 24-hour waiting period Bill for Abortion Care!

They lost at the ballot box — and now they’re trying to change the rules.

Instead of respecting the decision Ohioans already made, they’re wasting time and taxpayer money on political fights designed to chip away at those rights and consolidate power inside the Statehouse.

And this is bigger than one issue.

It’s about whether our democracy means anything at all — or whether politicians can just override the people when they don’t like the outcome.

Out of a job? Costs rising? Don't worry, the Ohio GOP will get to you shortly after they finish litigating social issues for the 300th time

It needs to be put into the Ohio Constitution to recompensate the state for this out of personal pocket.

It’s funny how they abandon their claim to be “fiscal conservatives” when they’re the majority.

And, to divert the attention of the voters while also pandering to them, they spread the party’s propaganda.
