@ANSIRH And many first families find out the hard way that adoptive parents do not have to honor an “open adoption.” Adoptive parents can close it whenever they wish leaving the first family devastated.

We said FOR YEARS ending Roe would lead to far more people being arrested and criminalized for exercising their right to bodily autonomy & that Black, brown and Indigenous people are disproportionately criminalized.

Abortion pills, including Mifepristone, are extremely safe.

In case you haven’t heard we’re hosting an insurance review clinic 10am-4pm and then handing out zines and either lemonade or hot chocolate (depending on the weather) to celebrate Trans Day of Visibility! Come join us!

[Abortion Fund of Ohio @abortionfundOH]

Hi. We’re still here. We’re still funding abortions. Soon, we’ll need to talk about our legislature returning.

For now, know that you can get abortion care through 21 weeks & 6 days from your last menstrual period. Get help ➡️ https://t.co/glKnw7o7Ch

Let’s make reproductive freedom a ballot measure, Ohio, 2024.
We will never give up.

[Gabby Richards @gabbyrichards]

Ballot measures to protect abortion access and reproductive freedom are UNDEFEATED tonight.

5-0.

The pundits were wrong. Abortion matters. Abortion motivated. Abortion won.

‼️ If you're voting with an absentee ballot, it's too late to mail it in! Get to your Board of Elections TODAY to return your completed ballot in person!

Your ballot must be received by your county Board of Elections (not your neighborhood polling place) by 7:30pm tonight.

Vote like your repro freedom is at stake. Because it is. All 3 GOP Ohio Supreme Court candidates believe life begins at fertilization. @PPAOhio @WholeWomans @cbuswomen @ProChoiceOH @JenniferBrunner @womensmarch @NorthsideDems @JenNWCbus @teresa_fedor

[ACLU of Ohio @acluohio]

🎉BREAKING: A judge has granted our request for a preliminary injunction, which will keep Ohio’s 6 week abortion ban blocked indefinitely.

Abortion will remain legal in the state of Ohio. This is a MAJOR victory for reproductive freedom.

[Abortion Forward @AbortionForward]

Release from @KellCope on injunction blocking Ohio's abortion ban: “This ruling is sorely needed to protect the lives and well-being of people who need access to abortion. It will save lives."

[Senator Beth Liston @Liston4Ohio]

The dystopian implications of this 'personhood' bill are endless. Across the country we have seen women investigated for miscarriages, potentially charged with murder for the natural end of ~20% of pregnancies. 3/5

[Senator Beth Liston @Liston4Ohio]

This isn't hyperbole. 22 Ohio Lawmakers stood in front of the statehouse yesterday in support of a 'personhood' bill granting constitutional rights to fetal tissue. 1/5 https://t.co/1PxarcCmCI

[ACLU of Ohio @acluohio]

🚨Tomorrow at 9am our attorneys will be at the Hamilton County Court of Common Pleas fighting to keep the 6week abortion ban blocked for the duration of our case.

If granted, this would mean *significant*, extended relief for Ohioans.

We will never stop fighting for our rights.

[Athenians for Bodily Autonomy @ABAohio]

Ruling in a lawsuit brought by Planned Parenthood, the ACLU, & WilmerHale, Hamilton County Judge Jenkins finds a “fundamental right to abortion” under the Ohio Constitution’s equal protection & benefit to women.

[Athenians for Bodily Autonomy @ABAohio]

For now at least thru Oct. 12, ABORTION IS LEGAL UP TO 22 WEEKS IN OHIO.

So, don't hesitate to seek the care you need. & VOTE for pro-choice candidates when early voting starts Wednesday, Oct. 12--the same this temporary stay on the abortion ban expires.

[Athenians for Bodily Autonomy @ABAohio]

INSANELY undemocratic to have to Google your rights each day to find out whether your healthcare is a felony or not this week.

We must elect representatives who will explicitly #CodifyAbortionRights into our state & federal constitutions.
