Abortion Law May Not Reach Athens Ohio Hospitals
Ohio's new abortion law takes effect September 16 and will likely be felt across the state with limited access in small communities like Athens. O Bleness Hospital Chief of Staff Dr. Phillip Kinnard says the local hospital will not offer abortion due to lack of trained staff and availability in nearby cities Columbus and Zanesville. He notes no staff physicians have shown interest in training, though a trained physician could apply for approval.

Athens Women Trustees Seek Privilege to Perform Abortion
The Athens Messenger reports trustees consider allowing abortion under privileges to perform. Kinnard notes nearby cities offer abortions with no significant hardship. Women seeking abortions at O'Bleness are referred to United Campus Ministry or Planned Parenthood. Ohio's pre Roe law was struck down by the 1973 Supreme Court ruling, legalizing abortion in the first six months, with states allowed to regulate post first trimester. State Rep. Claire M. Ball Jr. provided a legislative analysis, noting the law seeks to protect the life of a child born by attempted abortion.

Small Cities Move to Criminalize Abortion Practice
The bill creates abortion manslaughter crimes by restricting abortion to physicians, imposes first degree misdemeanor for unlicensed practice, and requires informed woman consent with third party consent for unmarried minors. It bars public funds for elective abortions unless the mother's life is at risk and protects rights of conscience for providers and hospitals while facing constitutional challenges.
