Ohio's new six-week abortion ban is in place but Ohioans who want abortions still have options to get connected to those services.
Dr. Adarsh Krishen, the chief medical officer for Planned Parenthood of Greater Ohio, said staff at those facilities had to call patients scheduled for abortions — in the days following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade — to cancel those procedures.
Within hours of the high court's action, a federal court that had put Ohio's six-week abortion ban on hold, allowed it to go into effect.
That ban, also known as the "heartbeat bill," prohibits abortion at the point fetal cardiac activity can be detected. That's around six weeks into a pregnancy, before many women even know they are pregnant. Since that time, Krishen said staff at Planned Parenthoods in Ohio have been helping patients in different ways.

The Christian Taliban doesn't care if a homeless person kills herself, so long as she doesn't have an abortion...

They are literally now openly defending forcing 10-year old girls to give birth to their rapist's progeny, even if that means giving birth to her own brother or sister.

..."The future of abortion in Ohio
The future of abortion in Ohio could change soon. Republicans who control the Ohio Legislature say they want to pass an all-out ban on abortion in Ohio.
Jessie Hill, associate dean for research and faculty development at the School of Law at Case Western Reserve University said the court case her group filed with the federal court to block the six-week abortion ban from going into effect is still under consideration on its merits. She’s hoping the court will determine Ohio’s constitution allows abortion. At the federal level, President Joe Biden has signed an executive order to preserve access to abortion.
“I’m asking the Justice Department that, much like they did in the Civil Rights era, to do everything in their power to protect these women seeking to invoke their rights,” Biden said in a news conference Friday.
Biden said he’s asking other federal agencies to take action to protect access to abortion medications and birth control and to protect the privacy of patients. But Biden’s actions are limited. He said Congress needs to pass a law to codify Roe v. Wade."

Given the doubt sown by the story of the 10 year old, I refuse to overreact to this.

President Joe Biden has said he “can’t think of anything as … extreme” as the 10-year-old girl being forced to give birth.

What's next? The Bible is true because the Bible says it's true?
Best and the brightest, huh?

CW4 Guy Butler - And DNA evidence was collected at the time of the abortion, as well as collected by police when they arrested the alleged perpetrator (who also seems to have confessed). I seriously doubt any retractions are making front page news. I also seriously doubt the Christo-fascists are capable of reflection for the harm they are causing.
