Abortion supporters got what they demanded in Ohio city

An Ohio city’s symbolic pro-life ordinance, which angered abortion supporters who organized to stop it, has been reversed in a lopsided vote by city council members.

The city council of Mason, Ohio, voted in October to establish a “Sanctuary City” policy for the city of 33,300, declaring that abortion was not welcomed there.

That ordinance passed narrowly, 4-3, and then came municipal elections just weeks later.

Two city council members who voted for the ordinance lost re-election, The Associated Press reported.

Laura Strietmann of Greater Cincinnati Right to Life says the “Sanctuary City” vote was repealed last week in a 6-1 vote.

“It is now,” she tells AFN, “not a sanctuary city for the unborn.”

The volatile issue proved to be a heated one in Mason, where abortion supporters launched a petition drive to put the issue before voters. Before the 6-1 vote, city leaders listened to emotional appeals for and against abortion during a public comment period. 

Regarding the heated debate, Streitmann says what her struck her was abortion supporters who shared their abortion “horror stories” and justified taking a life.

“And just to witness pro-aborts, who are post-abortive,” she says, “spending the rest of their life justifying the death of their own unborn child.”
