Hundreds Protest Anti-Choice Laws in Ohio 
------------------------------------------


 
Hundreds of people rallied at the Ohio statehouse on Wednesday to
protest anti-abortion measures signed into law earlier this year.
Provisions added to Ohio's budget in June effectively defund Planned
Parenthood, shift funds to deceptive crisis pregnancy centers, impose
restrictions that could shut down clinics and require providers to
detect any fetal heartbeat and then tell the patient about it before an
abortion.
