Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost joined 23 Republican attorneys general urging the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the landmark abortion decision Roe v. Wade.
They filed a legal brief backing Mississippi s ban on most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy, which the high court agreed to hear in May. The case will be a test of whether the court s conservative majority will limit the 1973 ruling giving women a constitutional right to abortion.
How the court rules in the Mississippi case could affect Ohio s many abortion restrictions working their way through the federal court system. An Ohio law banning abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected and another prohibiting abortions after a fetal diagnosis of Down syndrome are currently on hold.
