The Left’s Abortion Misinformation

Ohio’s Issue 1 ballot initiative, on which voters will decide on Nov. 7, is already contentious enough. The proposed constitutional amendment would enshrine a right to abortion in Ohio’s state constitution and remove virtually every safeguard, including required parental involvement in a minor’s abortion. But now, a television ad featuring a couple who traveled to another state for a late-second-trimester abortion after receiving an adverse prenatal diagnosis has further fanned the flames—and caused immense confusion.

The details are heartbreaking: After a long struggle with infertility and spending thousands of dollars on IVF treatments, Beth and Kyle Long were expecting their first child, a little girl, whom they nicknamed “Star” — because in her earliest ultrasound image, she looked like a little, twinkling star. Beth Long’s pregnancy proceeded normally until, at 18 weeks, Star was diagnosed with a rare condition, a fetal malformation called limb body wall complex, sometimes referred to generally in medical literature as “body stalk anomaly.”
