With her fingers crossed that Roe v. Wade falls, a Hudson lawmaker has introduced a bill in the Ohio Senate that would automatically ban all abortions, except to prevent the death or serious injury of pregnant women in limited cases.
Sen. Kristina Roegner (R-Hudson) joined Sandra O Brien (R-Ashtabula) this week to introduce Senate Bill 123. Known across the nation as a trigger law, the legislation would automatically make Ohio a right to life state should the landmark Roe case protecting a woman s right to abortion be overturned by the more conservative Supreme Court or the states ratify an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would prohibit abortion.
