Abortion rights backers take heart from Ohio but Supremes likely won't let Florida voters decide for themselves in 2024
By Noreen Marcus, FloridaBulldog.org
Advocates of a reproductive freedom proposal for the 2024 Florida ballot celebrated this week when Ohio became the seventh state to join an abortion rights backlash after the U.S. Supreme Court reversed Roe v. Wade.
On Tuesday, Ohio voters affirmed, by a wide margin, a ballot measure that adds the right to abortion to the state constitution. It guarantees to every person the right “to one’s own reproductive medical treatment,’’ including abortion, and bars the state from ‘’burdening, penalizing or prohibiting’’ these personal choices.
