Our goal is to show Ohio lawmakers that their actions DO NOT align with the values of Ohio citizens. We are gathering petition signatures from all 88 counties and will present them to the members of the 133rd Ohio General Assembly.
We did not elect our lawmakers to focus on limiting women’s reproductive health choices. We want lawmakers to focus on the real issues facing our state.
Read the petition"s wording below, sign it to the right.

We, the undersigned, call on the 133rd Ohio General Assembly:
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
THE PEOPLE OF OHIO DEMAND AN END TO ATTACKS BY OUR STATE LAWMAKERS ON REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS. BILL AFTER INTRODUCED BILL SEEKS TO VIOLATE OUR FUNDAMENTAL FREEDOMS TO MAKE HEALTH CARE AND FAMILY PLANNING DECISIONS.
** Legislators who pushed the Six Week Abortion Ban were fully aware of - and some even welcomed - the costly court battle this unconstitutional law faces, and Ohio tax payers are paying these court costs.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
WE WANT OUR LEGISLATORS TO INTRODUCE BILLS THAT SHOW THEY HAVE DONE THEIR HOMEWORK. WE WANT ACCURATE, HONEST LANGUAGE TO BE USED IN OUR LAWS.
** The detection of a cluster of cells that makes a regular rhythmic sound should not be misrepresented as a heart beating. (Senate Bill 23, aka heartbeat bill)
**There is no medical procedure that can convert an ectopic pregnancy to a normal pregnancy by transferring the implanted fertilized egg to the uterus. (House Bill 182)
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
WE WANT YOUNG PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND THEIR BODIES AND TO ENSURE THEIR ACTIONS ARE GUIDED BY BOTH THEIR MORAL COMPASS AND INTELLIGENCE.
** Ohio is the only state with no health education standards. Comprehensive sex education is the most effective means of preventing unwanted pregnancy, yet House Bill 90 has been introduced, mandating abstinence-based-only education.
** The 20th century welcomed advances in the effectiveness and availability of birth control. Yet House Bill 182 would prohibit insurance coverage for safe, widely used birth control methods.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
WE WANT OUR LEGISLATORS TO SHOW TRUE COMPASSION FOR WOMEN WHO HAVE BEEN SUBJECTED TO THE WORST FORMS OF CRIME.
**When you mandate that victims of rape or incest must continue a pregnancy resulting from that act, you become like their perpetrators, sending a message that their bodies are not their own.
** Ohio has the second highest rate of sex trafficking in the United States.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
IN OHIO WE HAVE SERIOUS ISSUES AFFECTING EDUCATION, INFRASTRUCTURE, QUALITY JOBS, THE ENVIRONMENT, HEALTHCARE AND AN OPIOID EPIDEMIC.
WE HAVE NO MORE PATIENCE: DROP THE ATTACKS ON REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND FOCUS ON THESE CRITICAL ISSUES.
