Since 2011, Faith 2 Action’s Janet Porter has been working to get the state of Ohio to pass her “Heartbeat Bill” legislation, which would prevent a women from having an abortion if a fetal heartbeat can be detected, thereby dramatically curtailing reproductive rights by banning abortion “as early as 18 to 24 days after conception.”

Now, after three years of failure despite having organized multiple rallies and attention-grabbing stunts, Porter has decided that she is going to take her case directly to God, sending out an email today announcing a prayer rally to be held outside the Ohio Statehouse next month at which participants will launch a direct “Appeal To Heaven” on behalf of her legislation:

We’ve called. We’ve rallied. We’ve lobbied. On September 17th, we’re going over their heads! AN APPEAL TO HEAVEN

Wednesday, September 17th

Ohio Statehouse-High St. Side

10:00 am – 1:00 pm

To pass the Heartbeat Bill Pastors from around the state will lead us as we go over the heads of the elected officials with an Appeal to Heaven!
