Ban on abortions after 1st heartbeat sent to Ohio governor, who has said he will sign it
1 / 4Ohio Representative Michele Lepore-Hagan wipes tears from her face during a hearing to propose amendments to the"Heartbeat Bill" which was later voted to pass through the committee and to the House floor at the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus, Ohio on Tuesday, April 9, 2019.
State Rep. Michele Lepore-Hagan, a Democrat from a storied Youngstown political family, shed tears during the debate, exasperated at a bill she said would harm Ohio and its future. State Rep. Candice Keller, a Middletown Republican, called the legislation"the most compassionate bill we've ever passed."
During floor debate Wednesday, two female representatives who said they had been raped, slammed the bill for not making exceptions for rape and incest. Another female lawmaker said her great-grandmother bled to death in a bath tub trying self-administer an abortion. "Essentially, that's three to four weeks after conception, or one to two weeks after a missed period," he said.
State Rep. Beth Liston, a Dublin Democrat and a pediatrician, said proponents' hopes of challenging the viability standard upheld in the 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision aren't grounded in science. She said she favors the idea from Genesis that breath begins life.
