On Tuesday, a 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled to reverse a ban on a 2017 Ohio law regarding the act of performing abortions on fetuses because they are diagnosed with, or are believed to have, Down syndrome.
The bill was signed into law by Governor John Kasich in 2017, but it was blocked by a federal judge in early 2018 and has been in the courts since that time. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) represented many abortion providers in filing a suit against the state health department, state medical board, and county prosecutors in 2018, according to The Associated Press.
