The government should not have access to women’s wombs!

H. B. No. 754 Representative Schmidt. Ohio. Move to amend sections 313.12, 3705.01, 3705.08, 3705.16, 3705.20, 3705.29, 3727.16, and 4731.82 and to enact sections 3705.161 and 3705.50 of the Revised Code to require the registration of all fetal deaths and to require the filing of a certificate of life after the detection of a fetal heartbeat. Don’t adjust your television screen. I know this is in Ohio. I know you think this doesn’t pertain to you. Allow me to assure you it does. When Trump sent reproductive healthcare laws back to the states, he did it for a very specific reason. Historically, when states latch onto a concept and adopt it as law, other states tend to follow. In returning reproductive rights cases to the states, he is encouraging the inch by inch encroachment of these archaic rules on blue states as well. Don’t let him. Not every heritage foundation blessed rule needs to be enacted. Stand up on the floor and tell Schmidt to shut her foul mouth. Disparage. Detract. Defy. Her proposal creates legislation that will effectively allow the government to track women’s pregnancies. They’ll have access to date of approximate conception, approximate due date, etc. Incomplete pregnancies will entitle the government access to the when, the how, the where, and the circumstances of termination- whether it be miscarriage or abortion or whatever it may be. The government should not have access to women’s wombs. Keep this in mind as you move forward.
