CINCINNATI (AP/WSAZ)- Ohio's law banning abortions involving a fetal Down syndrome diagnosis is getting a new hearing.

The full 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals agreed Friday to hear the case.

A three-judge panel from the 6th Circuit in October upheld a lower court decision placing the 2017 law on hold, ruling it likely was unconstitutional.

The Ohio Attorney General appealed and asked the entire court to reconsider the constitutionality of barring doctors from performing such abortions.

Soon some governor or legislature will demand the abortion of babies with Down’s Syndrome. And that will just be the beginning of which babies must be aborted.

Looks like 11-5 for our side.
