August 9, 2023 - On Tuesday evening, President Joe Biden released the following statement on Ohio Issue 1 that was voted down by the people.

Today, Ohio voters rejected an effort by Republican lawmakers and special interests to change the state’s constitutional amendment process. This measure was a blatant attempt to weaken voters’ voices and further erode the freedom of women to make their own health care decisions. Ohioans spoke loud and clear, and tonight democracy won.
