It's part of a growing trend: At least 17 clinics closed last year in states where #abortion remains #legal, & another 17 have closed in just the first 5 months of this year, acc/to data gathered by ineedana.com. That includes states that have become abortion destinations, like #Illinois, & those where voters have enshrined broad #ReproductiveRights into the #StateConstitution, like #Michigan.

Ohio Republican’s attempt to take over the Ohio Dept of Education currently on hold.
