Abortion Control Bill Faces House Floor Vote Soon
Ohio lawmakers prepare to move an abortion control measure from the Judiciary Committee to a floor vote within about two weeks. Sponsor Rep. Harry Lehman says the bill would legalize abortions in the first 24 weeks when performed by licensed physicians in licensed clinics or hospitals.
