Ohio's abortion amendment says nothing about transgender or parental rights, contrary to the anti-abortion ad’s unfounded claims.
Ohioans will likely vote on whether abortion should be legal this November. Activists are now gathering signatures to get the measure on the ballot.
"I was shocked at the level of opportunism that's being utilized to just throw something in there, and it's not the truth," Upchurch said."It just literally isn't true." "The actual wording is of the language, less than 250 words, it says the state shall not interfere with any reproductive rights," Gonidakis said."And it also lists abortion, so it's not just abortion.""I think if an individual wants to go through the actual procedure to change their gender, that would that would fall under the umbrella of reproductive rights," Gonidakis said.
"The claim that this is some kind of mechanism for sneaking transgender rights into the Ohio Constitution is just wrong," Entin said."It's dishonest."

((Did this study focus on non-abortion reproductive health care/exclude abortion, or is abortion ALSO a part of this data? I'm wondering if we should emphasize more specifics in the headline so people don't read this as meaning abortion, when it's really broader or exclusive of that. // survey let people interpret themselves, but they were prompted: 'Reproductive health services were described to participants as 'a Pap smear, which is a test to check for cervical cancer, or family planning, like birth control methods.' how does this this tweak work? took out 'other' and went with 'more broadly' ))
