Democratic Ohio Senate nominee Tim Ryan appears to believe that there should be no restrictions on Abortion.
During an interview on Fox Newsâ âSpecial Report,â host Bret Baier asked the Senate hopeful, âAs senator, would you have any limits on Abortion?â
âLook, I think what we had established with Roe is something that we can continue to work with. And I think those can be the parameters,â Ryan began.
He continued, âBut then again, if you get rid of what was established law â which in many ways was conservative to keep that to appreciate stare decisis and make sure we appreciate the law â youâre going to get states like Ohio that have some of the most extreme laws in the whole country.â
Ryan pointed out that Ohioâs Abortion law does not provide an exception for rape or incest and argued that it is ânot a fundamental value.â

However, Baier interjected, âI get all that.â
âBut my question was about any limits, at any point. You know, late-term, anything?â Baier added.
Ryan responded, âLook, you gotta leave it up to the woman because you and IâŚâ
âSo no, is the answer,â Baier said.
Ryan responded, âYou and I canât account for all of the different scenarios that a woman dealing with the complexities of a pregnancy going through.â
âHow can you and I figure that out?â he asked.
Ryan, a sitting House member, won the Democratic primary for Ohioâs Senate seat on Tuesday.
According to a recent poll from The Washington Post/ABC News, a majority of Americans believe Abortion should be legal in all or most cases.
The exchange comes after a leaked draft opinion from the Supreme Court appeared to show it is poised to overturn the landmark Abortion case Roe v. Wade.
