ACLU Sues Ohio over Abortion Restrictions
Passed as part of state's budget
The American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio said on Wednesday that it had filed suit against state officials over abortion restrictions in the state's budget law.
The ACLU of Ohio challenged three abortion-related amendments passed in June as part of the state's budget. The suit, filed in Cuyahoga County on behalf of Preterm, a Cleveland women's health clinic that provides contraception and abortion services, contends that the amendments violate the Ohio Constitution's "single subject" rule.
