Is this a referendum question? If so how did it wind up on the ballot? If it’s just a proposal in the legislature why wasn’t it killed the moment it first appeared?
I have not a clue I don’t live in Ohio.
Who here lives in Ohio and can fill us in on that?
Ohio must vote this down. These people are Demonic.
Yes it a referendum on the ballot. Polling I have seen shows it will pass with close to 60% majority. That is heartbreaking, but well, democracy.
Who would even do that? The “medical” profession is lost. This is simply slaughter of our own children.
Voting for abortion is a mortal sin.
Prayer For Women Planning An Abortion
Heavenly Father, we know that every good and perfect gift comes from You and that children are a special heritage from the Lord. But Father, we also know that the enemy of our soul seeks to kill and destroy all that is from You, and especially the lives of little babies in the womb.
And so we lift up all women who may be planning to have an abortion, or who have been deceived into thinking that this is a woman’s right, rather than a sin against their creator God, and we pray that You would create in their hearts a desire to do what is right and a realisation of the evil that surrounds the practice of abortion, that they themselves are considering
Bring into the life of each mother those that would give godly counsel and change the hearts of those who have already made a decision to go down the route of abortion.
Instil in the heart of each woman a deep love for the baby they are carrying, and we pray that many may be prompted to turn from their planned abortion and look to the Lord Jesus, for the grace do what is right. This we ask in Jesus’ Name,
Amen.

“But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,”

Prayer For Mothers Considering An Abortion
Heavenly Father, we lift up the many mothers who are today considering an abortion, and pray that in Your grace You would direct them to make a godly and wise decision.
Lord, You know the individual circumstances of each and every woman, and the many arguments they may be using in their decision, of whether of not to abort the babe in their womb.
We pray that You would send godly councillors, wise advisors and caring friends to come alongside them and offer them guidance, hope and comfort, and we ask that in Your grace You would give them reassurance in their hearts, that abortion is not the answer to their problem, and recognise that You are the Author of life and hope.
We pray that You would convict many to discard their thoughts of aborting their baby, and trust You to lead and guide in the future choices they make. This we ask in Jesus’ Name,
Amen.
“For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.”
(Psalm 139:13)

In Ohio, ballot amendments such as this are approved/fail by a simple majority vote. Back in May there was a special election to change this to 60/40, but it failed. That effort was undertaken with exactly this Amendment in mind.
Commercials here in favor of this monstrosity are, of course, all about keeping government out of “health care” decisions, rights, etc. Total BS.
This is incredibly sad to see.
You can be sure those promoting the amendment will not make transparently clear to the voters exactly what the amendment will require the state to allow. They will instead work to obfuscate the meaning of the bill in their narrative of “rights”.
