As SCOTUS Begins Oral Arguments on Mifepristone Case, Ohioans Should Know Moreno Is “Absolute Pro-Life, No Exceptions”
As the Supreme Court begins oral arguments today on the abortion medication mifepristone, Ohioans should know that Bernie Moreno supports a national abortion ban without exceptions and would overturn the will of the majority of Ohioans who voted to protect reproductive rights last November.
“Bernie Moreno supports a national abortion ban that would overturn the will of Ohioans who voted to protect reproductive rights last year. Moreno puts himself first, not Ohioans,” said ODP spokesperson Katie Smith.
Reminder of Moreno’s on-the-record support for a national abortion ban:
- Moreno supports a national abortion ban that would overturn the will of Ohioans. Moreno has said he is “100% pro-life with no exceptions” and that he is “absolute pro-life, no exceptions.”
- Moreno opposed Ohio’s November Issue 1, which enshrined reproductive rights into the state constitution and included protections for IVF. Moreno has called attacks on IVF a “manufactured issue” and opposes federal protections for IVF.
- Moreno celebrated the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which has led to attacks on women’s reproductive healthcare like access to the abortion pill mifepristone. Mifepristone is unavailable in drugstores in Ohio due to Ohio’s restrictive abortion laws, which Moreno supported through his opposition to Issue 1.
