BREAKING: Ohio Attorney General Files to Enforce Heartbeat Law
BREAKING: Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost Files Motion to Break Heartbeat Law From Court Lock
After today's Supreme Court decision in the Dobbs case that overturned Roe v. Wade, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost filed a motion in federal court to dissolve the injunction against Ohio’s Heartbeat Law, which had been based on the the now-overruled precedents of Roe and Casey. The injunction prohibited the enforcement of the Heartbeat Law, which was signed back in 2019 by Governor Mike DeWine.
AG Yost's motion seeks to end that prohibition, which would allow Ohio to protect unborn children from the time that their heartbeats can be detected, approximately six weeks from conception.
