Ohio begins voting on amendment that would guarantee abortion rights_我的网站

一 | Ohio residents this week began voting on a constitutional amendment whose fate will ultimately determine abortion access in the state.Voters are considering two ballot initiatives; ballots began being accepted on Wednesday and go through Election Day on Nov. 7.The two measures are: Issue 1, the amendment that if approved would add abortion rights to the state constitution; and Issue 2, which would legalize recreational marijuana.The proposed abortion amendment would establish an "individual right to one's own reproductive medical treatment including but not limited to abortion" and then creates legal protections for those individuals, among other guarantees like for contraception and fertility treatment.The marijuana measure, if passed, would make Ohio the 24th state to legalize cannabis and would allow adults 21 years and older to buy and possess up to 2.5 ounces of flower and 15 grams of extract.In August, Ohio voters resoundingly rejected a contentious, Republican-backed ballot measure that would have raised the threshold for future changes to the state constitution -- an effort that would have specifically made it more difficult for the abortion amendment to pass.When the U.S. Supreme Court struck down its previous Roe v. Wade ruling, in 2022, the justices returned the question of abortion access to individual states. Since then, while some states have largely ceased abortion access, others have taken up ballot measures that put the question before voters. In those cases -- in both red and blue states so far -- voters have rejected the potential for abortion restrictions and bans or elected to expand access.On Sept. 27, the Ohio Supreme Court started hearing arguments about the state's six-week abortion ban, which was previously put on hold by a lower court.The success or failure of the abortion ballot measure could render that case moot, if state voters add abortion access to their constitution.Both sides have built up mobilization efforts over the past few weeks -- knocking on doors, canvassing and hosting rallies across the state."Whether you're pro-life or pro-choice, Issue 1 just goes too far," Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, a Republican, said at a recent event at the Ohio GOP's headquarters.Ohio Democrats claimed last week to have been inching toward 100,000 doors knocked and more than 100,000 calls made in the time since their win in the August special election."We're not leaving anything behind as we work to protect women's rights to choose and prevent Ohio's extreme abortion ban from taking effect," Ohio Democratic Chairwoman Elizabeth Walters said during a recent press briefing.There's also been significant financial investment in the race. According to numbers from AdImpact released last week, $12.3 million had been spent or reserved in advertising around the abortion ballot measure, with anti-amendment groups outspending amendment supporters by about $1.6 million.

The two sides make their arguments

Both Ohioans United for Reproductive Rights, a coalition of groups supporting abortion rights, and allied Ohio Democrats have sounded the alarm on what they claim to be foul play by opponents of the abortion amendment.Last month, the state Supreme Court allowed the Republican-controlled Ohio Ballot Board -- which is overseen by Secretary of State Frank LaRose, who is also running for the U.S. Senate -- to use amendment language that includes the phrase "unborn child."Democrats on the board had asked for measure's language to remain what was on the petition that voters originally signed, which did not include that term.Amendment supporters have argued it was rewritten to confuse voters and is misleading about what the measure would actually do."They're running scared because they know their extreme abortion ban is wildly unpopular, and Ohio voters support a woman's right to make medical decisions for themselves without interference from politicians," Walters, with the state Democrats, said during a recent press call.Abortion opponents have also attempted to broaden the stakes of the proposal, arguing that it "goes far beyond" codifying the protections of Roe v. Wade to potentially affect parents' rights and "threaten the freedom of conscience of Ohio's healthcare professionals and preclude ... the enactment and enforcement of commonsense, protective laws," as Protect Women Ohio, one of the leading organizations fighting against the amendment, wrote in a memo."The Abortion Amendment victimizes rather than protects and empowers women and girls," they continued.LaRose, a leading voice against the measure, said in a statement to ABC News that "as a father and someone who's always stood up to protect life, I'll be working to defeat this radical measure."。冀时新闻报道首颗"雄安造"卫星的背后，见证了雄安新区空天信息产业链条的加速成型、拔节成长，也形成极强示范效应，吸引更多航天、空天、数字科创类企业集聚雄安。作为国内唯一具备全生态服务能力的卫星组网解决方案商，鸿擎科技在2025年初落户雄安，当年10月，首颗"雄安一号"就完成下线，创造了"当年注册、当年建设、当年投产、当年下线"的行业奇迹。鸿擎科技副总裁史耀中：一个细节的话就是，其实卫星的整个的厂房要求，一般挑高都要求是10米以上。新区这边第一时间得知我们这边的这个定制化需求以后，立即就联系对应的这个厂房的建设单位，按照企业的这个要求，将厂房的整个内部进行了一个升级和改造。

二 | 我记得当时装修的时候，同时有五十多台登高车，同时在内部进行对应的加急作业，其实也是体现了咱们雄安速度。为助力后续航天企业轻资产落地，雄安新区同步建设卫星共享智造中心、共享测试中心，年测试能力最高可达100颗整星及200套载荷。卫星制造过程中所需的力学、热环境、太阳翼展开标定等全维度测试验证在这里都能完成。鸿擎科技副总裁史耀中：在这个航天领域，实际上生产制造研发它肯定是需要对应的成本的。

三 | 雄安新区这边实际上是给提供了非常方便的一些公共的基础设施。这样的话可以为很多企业节约大量的前期的固定资产投资。雄安科学园工作人员何岩松：我们建立的这个共享智造中心和共享测试中心的初衷，是为了帮助初创的商业航天企业来节省他们的成本，然后把他们的时间和精力更多地投入到下一步的发展和创新过程中。以承接疏解带动产业发展、引领科技创新、加快要素集聚，雄安新区实现空天信息产业从无到有、从有到优。数据显示，雄安新区目前已集聚空天信息上下游企业69家、创新平台9个。从卫星设计、零部件生产，到在轨运维、时空应用……雄安新区空天信息与卫星互联网产业链，正焕发出勃勃生机。

四 | 北京航空航天大学宇航学院副教授杨良："雄安一号"（鸿鹄03星）是最直观的"疏解成绩单"，能极大带动高端企业入驻。雄安的核心使命是承接北京非首都功能疏解。落地企业能在雄安造出自己的卫星，成功通过太空环境的严酷考验，就是用实力实打实地证明，雄安留得住高端科创资源、养得活未来产业、给得好发展平台。这会形成极强的示范效应，吸引更多航天、空天、数字科创类企业，主动向雄安集聚，让疏解不再是"搬过来"，而是"聚起来、强起来"。
