Letter Opposing House Bill 347 and Abortion Restrictions

The Women’s Fund of Central Ohio sent a letter to the Ohio House Health Committee opposing House Bill 347 and any attempt to impose undue burdens or restrictions on an individual’s right to make personal reproductive decisions. This piece of legislation is an attempt to enact Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers, better known as a TRAP law, and would reinstate Ohio’s 24-hour waiting period for abortion care. This would be in direct conflict with Ohio’s Constitution Amendment, The Right to Reproductive Freedom with Protections for Health and Safety.
