Ohio women should be concerned about the anti-choice bills that are advancing in the legislature, including two bills approved by the Ohio Senate on Nov. 6 (“Ohio Senate passes two abortion bills on survival, ‘reversal’,” Nov. 7).

Senate Bill 155 would jail doctors if they do not inform their patients regarding the possibility of “reversing” a chemical abortion. But well-known health organizations say there is no evidence that such a thing is even possible. Senate Bill 208 would require health care providers to administer medical care to an infant that survives an attempted abortion and require doctors to report instances of an attempted abortion results in a live birth. Pro-choice groups say failure to provide medical care is already a felony.

In the Ohio House, House Bill 413, with very few exceptions, calls for the death penalty for anyone who performs an abortion (“Ohio state lawmakers propose total abortion ban,” Nov. 15). There is no exception for rape and incest.

This is part of a multipronged strategy to outlaw abortion and abortion procedures and to regulate it out of existence, as if that is even possible. Call or write to your senator and representative and say you’re outraged.
