Ohio Abortion Ban

According to the Huffington Post Ohio's state House of Representatives passed a legislation on Tuesday night that will ban physicians to execute an abortion once a fetal heartbeat is heard. In terms of a pregnancy this would be in 6 weeks where some parents wouldn't know that they were pregnant. The Ohio's state house is led by republicans and they feel that now is the time to pass the legislation due to rumors of Donald Trump potentially electing supreme court officials that will approve to ban abortions. Lawmaker in Ohio have been trying to pass the "heartbeat bill" since 2011. The bill now rests on the desk of Governor Kasich who has shown no indication of whether he will sign it or not.
