The state’s Education and Health Departments would be banned from consulting healthcare facilities that provide abortions when designing the program.
Ohio Republicans are pushing a measure that would create a new public school curriculum about the “humanity of the unborn child,” with the declared goal of reaching an “abortion-free society.”
The measure is especially concerning to abortion-rights advocates as states nationwide increasingly try to crack down on access to and education about reproductive services. Some of those efforts have hit a wall. Ohio’s attempt to ban abortions after about six weeks of pregnancy was blocked last week in federal court. But legislators are trying other tactics to fight abortion as well ― like controlling educational messaging.
The bill is not the first of its kind. In 2016, Oklahoma passed a similar law called the Humanity of the Unborn Child Act. A version of that bill failed to pass in Florida in 2017. And Antani introduced an almost-identical bill in Ohio last year, as well. “When you learn that a baby’s heart beats at six to eight weeks, the fingernails form at 10 weeks, at 20 weeks pain is felt, that will help create a culture of life,” Antani said in a June hearing, according to the Columbus Dispatch. Antani declined to comment to HuffPost.
