Abortion rights advocates get green light to collect signatures for 2023 ballot measure

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Advocates of abortion access will soon hit the streets to collect signatures to try to make the November ballot.

The proposed amendment to the Ohio Constitution cleared the Ohio Ballot Board Monday after the five-member board certified that the proposal was one issue rather than multiple ones.

Sen. Theresa Gavarone, R-Bowling Green, noted that she was "horrified at the thought" of the amendment being added to the Ohio Constitution but had a procedural role to fulfill. She joined the unanimous vote.

Proponents now have until July 5 to collect 413,446 valid signatures from at least 44 counties. If they do, the measure will be placed on Ohioans' November ballot.
