Ohio's anti-abortion blueprint

from 1 big thing · host Axios

Ohio is holding a special election on Tuesday for voters to decide how easy it should be to amend the state constitution. It is the only item on the ballot and it's called Issue 1. Supporters of the proposal want to make it more difficult for an abortion rights amendment to pass in the state's general election in November. The big picture: Issue 1 is getting national attention because of what it could mean for abortion rights in Ohio as well as its impact on special interests in that state and beyond. Plus, a renewed push to get felons the right to vote in 2024. And, the video game Fortnite will be the setting for an unofficial Holocaust museum. Guests: Axios' Troy Smith and Eugene Scott. Credits: Axios Today is produced by Niala Boodhoo, Alexandra Botti, Fonda Mwangi, Robin Linn and Alex Sugiura. Music is composed by Evan Viola. You can reach us at [email protected].
