|Banned abortion if the unborn child is more than 20 weeks old and has viability outside the womb (HB 78);<ref>http://www.the-news-leader.com/news/article/5072014</ref> this affects about 600 abortions annually.<ref>http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2011/07/ohio_senate_passes_late-term_a.html</ref> When abortion is sought for a minor without parental approval, the judge must "'hear evidence relating to the emotional development, maturity, intellect, and understanding of the minor.'" The judge must also "ask if the minor understands the consequences and alternatives to the abortion," and "ask minors if anyone 'instructed' them on how to answer the court's questions."<ref>http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/11/05/us-abortion-ohio-idUSTRE7A41KE20111105</ref>
|The House also passed a bill prohibiting abortion if a heartbeat is detected (there are exceptions), which could become the strongest pro-life law in the nation,<ref>[http://www.foxtoledo.com/dpp/news/ohio-house-to-vote-on-3-abortion-related-bills Ohio house to vote on 3 abortion related bills, FOX Toledo, June 28, 2011]</ref> but it has not passed the Senate despite endorsement by many [[conservative]] leaders.
