Ohio Bill Would End Abortion, Protect Babies Starting at Conception

LIFENEWS.COM

The Ohio Prenatal Equal Protection Act, introduced Wednesday by State Reps. Levi Dean, R-Xenia, and Johnathan Newman, R-Troy, seeks to classify abortion as homicide and extend criminal and civil protections to babies before birth, effectively abolishing abortion in Ohio. The legislation, House Bill 370, also challenges the state’s 2023 constitutional amendment, which 57% of Ohio voters passed after a very deceptive multi-million dollar campaign that lied to voters.

End Abortion Ohio, a Christian nonprofit that collaborated with the bill’s sponsors, hailed the legislation as a step toward “the legal abolition of abortion.” The group argues that the 2023 amendment, known as Issue 1, violates the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of equal protection and is “null and void.” They called for an appeal to “the highest law; the law of God.”
