KETTERING — The Women’s Med Center in Kettering will begin medical and surgical abortions starting next week.
Earlier this week, a court order temporarily blocked Ohio’s abortion ban, allowing the center to reopen.
ACLU Ohio is representing the center and other abortion providers in Ohio, and last week the union filed a temporary restraining order in Hamilton County. The judge approved the request and ruled that in Ohio, abortions can continue after doctors detect a fetal heartbeat until September 28.
News Center 7 reached out to the Women’s Med Center here in Kettering, and a spokesperson sent a statement saying, “the judge’s decision is a major step in the right direction for the women in Ohio.”
We also reached out to Dayton Right to Life, and they say, “It’s very unprecedented to challenge a law that’s already been in place.”
