Anti-abortion advocates in Ohio have condemned a lawsuit filed by abortion-rights proponents objecting to the inclusion of the phrase 'unborn child' in the proposed abortion amendment ballot question.

Anti-abortion advocates in Ohio have condemned a lawsuit filed by abortion-rights proponents objecting to the inclusion of the phrase"unborn child" in the proposed abortion amendment ballot question.

The amendment's text grants each citizen the right"to make and carry out one's own reproductive decisions," including abortion. Although the amendment states the legislature can prohibit abortion after viability, it further stipulates that an abortion cannot be prohibited in any circumstances if the physician finds the procedure to be"necessary to protect the pregnant patient's life or health.

LaRose's summary of the amendment stipulates the provision would"always allow an unborn child to be aborted at any stage of pregnancy, regardless of viability if, in the treating physician's determination, the abortion is necessary to protect the pregnant woman's life or health."
