Right to Life of Greater Cincinnati has supported Ohio's human heartbeat protection strategy since efforts began in 2011. In the years since, these efforts have educated many on the true nature of abortion's toll on women, men, and their unborn children. In 2016, the Heartbeat Bill passed the Ohio House and Senate, but was ultimately vetoed by Governor Kasich.
If this bill passes the Ohio House tomorrow, it will then go through Senate hearings. After that the Ohio Senate will vote on it. If passed, it will go to the Governor's desk for a signature.
Establishing human heartbeat protections in Ohio is a historic opportunity for those committed to the cause of life. The baby has a heartbeat--the baby may not be aborted! Not in Ohio! Please pray for the passage of this bill - that more babies' lives will be saved in our state!

(Toledo)-The Foundation for Life (FFL) today expressed their deep disappointment and ongoing grave concerns ...
 
"The next 380 days will likely produce more of the same from Capital Care: more death, more injury to women, and a callous disregard for safety" stated Ed Sitter, Executive Director of the Foundation for Life. "It is astonishing that the Department of Health felt this was appropriate given the recent ruling by the Ohio Supreme Court, and the fact that this business faces over $40,000 in fines for violations levied against them by the same Department.

Agrees to Transport Agreement - Keeps Abortion Clinic OPEN!
UPDATE - ProMedica approved a transport agreement with Capital Care Network.   This is what they said to justify their decision to make the agreement.
  •             Extends existing practice to provide emergency medical care to all who need it
  •             Aligns with ProMedica's mission and values
  •             ProMedica is dedicated to well-being of northwest Ohio
  •             No one is beyond the reach of life-saving health care 
  •             Individuals should have access to the best care in their neighborhoods
FOR ALL EXCEPT THE UNBORN! Is this the health-care you want to take care of you and your family?
ProMedica said it aligned with their mission to do business with Capital Care Network abortion clinic.   This clinic has this documented reputation:

Praise God!   (READ press release from GTRTL)And, many thanks to those that have been praying outside the clinic and all throughout the years, for the many mothers, babies and workers that walked in and out of the last abortion clinic in Toledo.  February 6, the Ohio Supreme Court decided that the Ohio Department of Health was in its rights to close the doors of Capital Care Network for being in violation of the standing rule of 21-years requiring all 'ambulatory service providers of medical services to have a contract in place with a local hospital for transport of patients' should the need arise.  CCN has not had such an agreement in place since 2013.  The agreement it had with a hospital in Ann Arbor (est. in 2014) did not qualify as a 'local hospital' in that it is 52 miles away and not within the 30-minute or local standard defined in the rule.  Click here for the SLIP OPINION NO. 2018-OHIO-440 CAPITAL CARE NETWORK OF TOLEDO, APPELLEE, v.
