CINCINNATI, Ohio — The Ohio Senate has voted to defund the abortion giant Planned Parenthood, now sending the bill to the House for passage.

ā€œWe are moving that money to organizations that are life-affirming organizations,ā€ Sen. Bill Coley, R-West Chester Township, told reporters.

Senate Bill 214 was approved 23-10 on Wednesday, mostly along party lines. The legislation would reallocate over $1.3 million in funding to other health-related groups in the state that do not perform abortions.
