President Tracie Johnson


H.B. 314, the Ultrasound Viewing Option Bill, is scheduled for a possible vote in the Ohio House Health Committee on Wednesday, November 7. H.B. 314, which is sponsored by Rep. Shannon Jones (R, Springboro), would require that, if an ultrasound examination is performed prior to or during an abortion, the abortionist must give the woman an opportunity to view the active ultrasound image of the unborn child and an opportunity to receive a physical picture of the ultrasound image.

ACTION REQUESTED
If your State Representative is one of the members of the House Health Committee listed below, please contact your Representative and urge him or her to vote for H.B. 314, the Ultrasound Viewing Option Bill. You can tell your representative that, just as patients are often shown x-rays before surgery, ultrasounds provide scientifically accurate information that women should have an opportunity to view in order to make a more informed decision about abortion.
