Although it's Easter, I had to let everyone (especially the Ohioans) know about House Bill 228 (in PDF form). It was introduced in the Ohio House of Representantives and proposes to:

--make it illegal to perform any abortion in Ohio;

--increase the penalties for the offenses of unlawful abortion, unlawful distribution of an abortion-inducing drug, and abortion trafficking;

--enact the offense of facilitating an anabortion;

--place felony penalties on an individual who attempts to coordinate an abortion for a minor; and

--make it a felony to transport a woman across state lines to obtain an abortion.



Just thought that you Ohioans would want to know what your Congressmen are sponsoring (Brinkman, Hood, Buehrer, Bubp, Faber, Fessler, Gilb, Hoops Kearns, Raussen, Reidelbach, Schaffer, Schneider, Seaver, Taylor, Uecker, Wagner, and Widowfield). I'd think that there are other problems in Ohio, but what do I know?
