Ohio passes stricter abortion laws
The Ohio state legislature, following the pattern of stricter abortion laws being introduce in the US by Republican majority states, recently introduced a law that would ask doctors to re-implant ectopic pregnancies or risk being charged with abortion murder. Ectopic pregnancies occur when the embryo implants itself onto the woman's fallopian tubes instead of the uterus. There is no known procedure for re-implanting the embryo in such a way.
