Ohio GOP lawmakers move to ban telehealth, mail-order abortion pills

Despite Ohioans overwhelmingly protecting access to abortion, Republican lawmakers are moving to restrict the procedure by ending telehealth prescriptions and mail-order pills.

The sponsors say they aren’t specifically targeting abortion, but the increase in drugs available through the mail.

Ohio Issue 1 passed in November 2023 with 57% of the vote, enshrining reproductive rights into the state constitution.

It says Ohioans have the right to make their own decisions about abortion, contraception, fertility treatment, miscarriage care, and continuing pregnancy. The state is prohibited from interfering with or penalizing someone for exercising this right.
