On Dobbs Anniversary, Jon Husted Remains Committed to Destroying Access to Reproductive Rights for Ohioans

June 24, 2026

REPORTING: 'Husted has supported total abortion bans with zero exceptions for over 20 years'

COLUMBUS, OHIO - Today, on the anniversary of the Dobbs decision that repealed Roe v. Wade and ripped away freedoms from millions of women in Ohio, Jon Husted remains deeply out of touch with Ohioans on reproductive rights.

Jon Husted has spread dangerous misinformation, recently calling the FDA-approved abortion pill mifepristone "not safe" and is pushing to ban its use. Husted has also long backed abortion bans without exceptions for rape, incest, or the life of the mother.

Ohio Democratic Party Senior Communications Advisor Tony Wen released the following statement:

"Jon Husted supports banning abortion with no exceptions, including for the life of the mother, and has spread dangerous misinformation about FDA-approved medications. Ohioans have made clear that these deeply personal medical decisions belong with women and their doctors - not out of touch extremists like Jon Husted."
