To the editor:
I'm writing to give a shout out to 17- year- old Lena Rohr, East Liverpool, for organizing a great Pro Choice Rally July 10 in Lisbon.
I'm also writing to set straight the number of people who attended the event as reported by local news stations. There were about 200 people of all ages in favor of abortion access, while at any one time the most anti-choice protesters had was 30 people, of gray-haired age.
These numbers reflect the same percentages found statewide- that 70 % of Ohioans across the board, support reproductive health care for families, including abortion. The Republican-controlled Ohio Statehouse , with one of the most corrupt state governments in the nation, continues to pass laws to take bodily autonomy and healthcare decisions away from people, as well as criminalize healthcare providers.
Voters know who the real criminals are-our representatives in Columbus. Together, we need to vote them out, and replace them with public servants who will represent the majority of this state.
