We urge you to veto Ohio House Bill 294, which will redirect funds for infant mortality prevention, HIV testing, breast and cervical cancer testing, and programs under the Violence Against Women Act. The removal of this funding will not decrease abortions, but rather, would have a negative impact on the health of our communities.
Why is this important?
I am a Licensed Practical Nurse, and have worked in and continue to volunteer in the community health field. Ohio House Bill 294 is a political move and is not in the best interest of women, infants and children in Ohio.
