DeWine signs abortion restriction likely to close SW Ohio clinics
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine signed a new abortion law on Wednesday that looks likely to close Southwest Ohio abortion clinics.
DeWine signed Senate Bill 157 without further comment, along with several other bills that passed through the legislature in their last work week before the holidays.
The bill was condemned by abortion providers, who said not only that portions of the bill that direct doctors on the amount of care they should give babies born as a result of a “failed abortion” are already part of medical oaths and Ohio law, but that the bill would impact wanted pregnancies in which complications become a factor.
“At this moment, we’re at a crisis point for abortion access in Ohio and across the country,” said Kersha Deibel, CEO of Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio. “…Stripping abortion care from Southwest Ohio will cause havoc that disproportionately impacts our communities.”

Abortion restriction laws continue to get more and more asinine. Laws made by raving idiots who don't understand the first thing about what they're legislating (and don't want to).
And mark my words: it's going to get unimaginably worse once the peabrained, compassion devoid conservatives on the SCOTUS strike down Roe, as most believe they're going to do. We ain't seen nothin' yet.
