OH Abortion Law Halted

A federal judge temporarily blocks an Ohio law, banning abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected, siding with abortion clinics that had argued the law would effectively end the procedure in the state. The ruling halts the July 11 enforcement of the so-called heartbeat bill. Ohio is among a dozen states that have considered similar legislation this year, as abortion opponents pursue a national anti-abortion strategy to overturn Roe v. Wade.
