Columbus Faith Leaders Hold ‘Sacred Faith, Sacred Ohioans, Sacred Freedom’ Rally in Support of Issue 1 Ahead of Election on Reproductive Freedom

​

Columbus, Ohio – On Thursday, November 2, at 2 p.m, Columbus faith leaders will rally, ahead of the November 7 election, to encourage Ohioans to vote YES on Issue 1 to protect comprehensive reproductive healthcare in Ohio.  

​

People of faith know Ohioans deserve the right to make their own medical decisions about reproductive healthcare, including pregnancy and abortion, without the interference of judges and legislators. Our faith teaches us that we all should have the ability to live with dignity, autonomy and a sense of well-being. Ohio faith leaders will vote YES on Issue 1 to protect comprehensive reproductive healthcare and are asking Ohio voters to join us in this fight.
