Title-Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine signs bill requiring fetal remains be buried or cremated
Jessie Balmert
Cincinnati Enquirer
snip-"COLUMBUS What started with then-Attorney General Mike DeWine's 2015 investigation into Planned Parenthood ended with the Republican governor signing a bill on Wednesday that requires fetal remains be buried or cremated.
Senate Bill 27 requires any aborted zygote, blastocyte, embryo or fetus to be buried or cremated. Any woman who obtains an abortion in Ohio would be informed prior to the procedure that she can choose the final disposition of the fetal remains."
snip.""Not only is Senate Bill 27 unconstitutional and medically unnecessary, it also adds yet another barrier for patients who are trying to access abortion services which is the legislatures real goal," said Lauren Blauvelt-Copelin, vice president of government affairs and public advocacy at Planned Parenthood Advocates of Ohio
snip-"DeWine has consistently supported restrictions on access to abortions. Last year, he signed the state's most restrictive abortion ban, which would prohibit them as soon as six weeks into a woman's pregnancy. That law, called the "heartbeat bill," is being challenged in court."

Any reservoir of respect I had for him is gone.

Every now and then people we vehemently disagree with do something we approve of. It doesn't much change my feelings about them.
