(COLUMBUS, Ohio)—Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine issued the following statement regarding a federal judge's ruling issuing a preliminary injunction in Preterm-Cleveland v. Himes:
"I strongly disagree with the district court's ruling that there is a categorical right to abortion that prevents even any consideration of Ohio's profound interests in combatting discrimination against a class of human beings based upon disability. We will be appealing."
