State of Ohio Moves to Outlaw Abortion in Wake of Supreme Court Decision

The Ohio Capitol Journal just posted an article on abortion in Ohio stemming from the U.S. Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade today in the case Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

The state of play at the moment in Ohio is that abortion is still legal but not for long.  The article points out that Governor Mike DeWine will look to implement the previously-passed (in 2019) six-week abortion ban before moving on to any new abortion legislation.
