  • Instead chooses a 20 week ban. I like the guy i really do. He likely would have made a better choice than Trump but we have 4 years to see. I just would rather have a more pragmatic less flamboyantly homosexual man as the president than Trump.

  • 5 months would be enough to decide if you've been raped or a victim of incest.

  • I guess he didn't want to go,up against the Supreme Court. He's a smart guy, for sure

  • Anyone in their right mind can compromise on 20 weeks barring the health and safety of the mother.

  • Just for Laughs I got an email today from Tim Ryan blasting Kasich for signing the 20-week bill.

  • "Steve --

    Ohio Governor John Kasich just signed one of the most restrictive abortion bans in the country, ignoring the voices of a majority of Ohioans and their doctors. Even though Kasich vetoed an even more dangerous version of the bill, we're not celebrating.

    Not only does this extremist bill turn back the clock on reproductive rights, it's yet another GOP distraction from the issues facing working families.

    Tim gets it: politicians should trust Ohio women to make their own healthcare decisions and focus on jumpstarting our economy.

    Unfortunately, extremist Republicans from Columbus to Washington have other plans in mind, and Tim needs our help to be ready. Will you chip in today to"

    There's part of.

  • Id prefer to see it at 6 months but im ok with this as long as health exemptions are firmly in place. I can already see the looming fight when a woman is told she has a complication that results in about 5% mortality rate and the conservative goonies come flying out to block her abortion cause theres 95% chance she lives. People are always game to roll the dicevwhen someone else's life is on the line....its like good sport almost

  • To the surprise of, I'm pretty sure, no one. I'm not a fan of abortion but 20 weeks seems like a pretty good compromise.

  • Funny how democrats trust us to make our own reproductive rights decisions, but not our own decisions on whether to carry insurance.

  • To be fair, I don't trust people to carry car insurance.

  • well I was actually thinking of health insurance since you can't bust up somebody's car and cost them a lot of money with cancer.

  • 20 weeks is fine for me, but is it not still too early based on Roe vs Wade? I thought that was at 24. I mean, 20 vs 24 is a small difference. What was it before in Ohio?
