PROTECT WOMEN OHIO LAUNCHES TWO<\/span><\/strong>
NEW ADS TO DEFEAT EXTREME ANTI-PARENT AMENDMENT <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cParents have every reason to fear the ACLU\u2019s extreme agenda. The state government doesn\u2019t know what is best for our kids, we do.\u201d<\/strong><\/em>
– Molly Smith, Board Member, Protect Women Ohio<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protect Women Ohio<\/strong><\/a> (PWO), a pro-woman, pro-life, pro-parent coalition, is launching two new 60-second ads this week aimed at defeating Ohio\u2019s dangerous anti-parent amendment. The ads, entitled \u201cLibby<\/strong><\/a>\u201d and \u201cLinda<\/strong><\/a>,\u201d will go into rotation as part of last month’s $5 million statewide television and digital ad buy<\/strong><\/a>. The ads feature Ohio moms Libby McCartney and Linda Corbitt explaining how the ACLU-backed amendment will eliminate parental notification and consent requirements for minors obtaining abortions or sex change surgeries. This extreme anti-parent amendment is the latest example of the ACLU\u2019s war on parental rights, effectively cutting parents out of the most important and life-altering decisions of their child\u2019s life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

McCartney and Corbitt explain the amendment language clearly forbids any law that \u201cdirectly or indirectly\u201d would \u201cburden\u201d or \u201cinterfere\u201d with an individual\u2019s \u201creproductive decisions.\u201d Those are specific legal terms which have been interpreted by courts across the country to strike down parental notification and consent laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cincinnati RIght to Life is a member of PWO and working in partnership with this strong, statewide group to stop this extreme ballot initiative.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This radical ballot initiative is deceptive and dangerous. Ohioans should be very concerned about abortionists advancing their anti-parent, anti-health, anti-life amendment. Ohioans that value families and life are working to keep our families safe and keep the killing-cash out of the abortionists\u2019 pockets.” -Laura Strietmann, Executive Director, Cincinnati Right to Life<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
