Abortion in Ohio is legal up to the point of fetal viability as a result of abortion rights being placed into the Ohio State Constitution by November 2023 Ohio Issue 1.[1]
A "heartbeat bill" that banned abortions after six weeks of gestational age that was enacted prior to Issue 1 was challenged in court, with the Attorney General of Ohio and other Republican leaders in Ohio defending it in court.[2][3] Planned Parenthood and the ACLU are advocating in court to have other pre-amendment restricitons nullified, such as a 24-hour waiting period, laws prohibiting advanced practice nurses and similar healthcare providers from prescribing abortion medications, and a law prohibiting the prescription of mifepristone (which is commonly used for medication abortion) for any off-label use.[4]
