Ohio State Senators Gary Cates and Bob Gibbs gave sponsor testimony on SB 262 this week, reminding the Ohio Senate that the majority of Americans have agreed for the past three decades that taxpayer dollars should not fund abortions. They also mentioned the Hyde amendment which has prohibited tax-payer funded abortions in the past but does not apply to the new healthcare legislation.
Senate Bill 262 prohibits qualified health plans from providing coverage for non-therapeutic abortions and it is the companion bill to HB 511.
