The Morning After from Pro-Choice Ohio
Health & Fitness:Sexuality
Description:
This week, Kellie, Vashitta, and Gabe discuss Capital Care Network in Toledo. An August 30 Toledo City Council meeting to support a clinic protection ordinance heard testimony from clinic escorts, staff, and patients who have sen harassment by protesters first hand.
This week, Toledo’s Capital Care was again the focus of a hearing, this time in the Ohio Supreme Court. Clinic attorney Jennifer Branch presented an argument that John Kasich‘s “transfer agreement” rule is unconstitutional.

Also on Tuesday, the Ohio Senate Committee on Health heard our testimony on the Down syndrome abortion ban. Kellie testified that afternoon after we recorded this podcast.

Finally, we discussed the possibility of a Total Abortion Ban, which became a much more serious notion later in the week when we learned that Janet Folger Porter, author of the “Heartbeat Bill” visited the White House to discuss a national version of the same ban.
We’ll definitely be discussing that idea more, next week.
