Rep. Lynn Wachtmann and Rep. Christina Hagan renewed the Ohio Human Heartbeat Protection Act seeking to criminalize abortion once a fetal heartbeat is detected. The measure, with about 40 sponsors, mirrors earlier House action and cites adoption and provider inspections as provisions. Supporters tout life-safety standards while courts in other states have blocked similar laws.
