Note the question mark. The Republican-dominated Ohio legislature is considering a bill to criminalize abortions if they are a result of a fetal diagnosis of Down syndrome.
Given the Republican efforts to criminalize all abortions, the bill will probably pass. These are the same Republicans who want to get government off our backs and out of our lives, except when they don’t. This legislation would actually try to determine what a woman is thinking.
Of course the bill is outrageous. Of course it is impossible to enforce. The question is, will presidential candidate and Ohio governor John Kasich veto it if it does pass?
I’m guessing no. He’s running for President on the Republican ticket. We are about to see if he is worthy to be president, or if he is just another panderer to the Republican extremists.
