Recent legal developments in Ohio have seen two additional laws aimed at restricting abortions being blocked by the courts. These rulings come in the wake of a 2023 constitutional amendment that guarantees access to abortion in the state.
One of the laws that have been temporarily halted is a ban on the use of telemedicine for medication abortions. Another law that has been blocked prohibits non-doctors, such as midwives and nurse practitioners, from prescribing the abortion pill mifepristone.
