abortions

Democrat Michael Kripchak and Republican State Sen. Michael Rulli will be facing off twice this year to represent Ohio's 6th district in Congress.

Republicans on the Ohio Redistricting Commission have sent an adjusted map of congressional districts back to the state’s high court that delivers two-thirds of the seats to their party; Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost is urging the state's five public employee retirement funds divest themselves of Russian financial holdings; An Ohio judge has blocked preemptive enforcement of a law imposing additional operating requirements on consulting physicians at abortion clinics; and more stories.

Supporters of legal abortion say the so called "trigger ban" bill would hurt Ohio's women.

The state of Ohio and the U.S. Census Bureau have asked a judge to place a hold on their court fight over when data used for redrawing congressional and legislative districts will be released; Republican lawmakers in Ohio have introduced bills that would ban the teaching of “critical race theory" in K-12 classrooms; a city in Southwest Ohio has become the first in the state to ban abortions; and more stories.
