This move has\u2062 sparked intense debate and raised concerns among \u200dopponents of the procedure.<\/p>\n<p>Haskell, who invented the procedure in Ohio and serves as the \u2062director of Women&#8217;s\u200b Med Center in Dayton, made the generous donation in March, according to campaign finance reports. The funds were given to Ohio \u200dPhysicians for Reproductive \u200cRights PAC, one of the key groups advocating for Issue One, \u2064a\u200c constitutional amendment that seeks to remove any statewide limitations on abortion.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>Reviving Controversial Practices<\/h3>\n<p>By supporting Issue One, which allows abortion-on-demand throughout \u200bthe entire\u2064 nine months of pregnancy and eliminates crucial health and safety protections for women, Haskell is essentially endorsing late-term abortions. This has raised concerns among\u200c opponents of the amendment, who fear the resurgence of Haskell&#8217;s\u2064 procedure after two decades of being illegal \u200cin Ohio.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The partial-birth abortion procedure, also known as &#8220;dilation and extraction,&#8221; involves dilating the mother&#8217;s cervix and extracting an intact baby through the birth canal. While it is currently prohibited in Ohio, critics argue that Haskell&#8217;s \u2063financial support for the amendment indicates his desire to revive this controversial practice.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>An \u200cInvestment \u2063in Late-Term Abortion<\/h3>\n<p>Amy Natoce, press secretary for Protect Women Ohio, an \u200borganization\u200b opposing the amendment, highlights Haskell&#8217;s $100,000 donation as an investment in his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/inside-the-abortion-academia-industrial-complex-that-youve-probably-never-heard-of\/\" title=\"Inside The Abortion-Academia Industrial Complex That You\u2019ve Probably Never Heard Of\">late-term abortion practice<\/a>. Natoce points to Haskell&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/border-patrol-chief-relieved-of-command-same-day-he-testified-before-congress-raising-retaliation-concerns\/\" title=\"Border Patrol Chief removed after testifying before Congress, sparking retaliation fears.\">past congressional testimony<\/a> in 1996,\u2064 where he admitted\u2063 to routinely performing such abortions \u200cat 20-24 weeks. This revelation further fuels concerns \u2063about the potential consequences of passing Issue One.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>As the election approaches, the\u200b battle over the\u200d ballot initiative intensifies. Campaign finance reports from July reveal \u2063that Protect\u2062 Women Ohio has\u200b raised approximately $16.4 million, while the pro-amendment side, including OPRR PAC, Ohioans for \u200bReproductive Freedom, and Ohioans United \u200cfor Reproductive Rights, has raised around $10.6 million.<\/p>\n<p>Opponents of the amendment enjoy support from national organizations like SBA Pro-Life\u200c America and CatholicVote, while proponents are \u2062backed by the American Civil \u2062Liberties Union and Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n<p>The first day of in-person voting \u200din Ohio took place on October 11. The Washington Examiner has reached out to Haskell and the Women&#8217;s Med Center for their comments on the donation.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What \u2063are the \u2063arguments \u2062made\u2063 by pro-life advocates against \u200dDr. Haskell&#8217;s donation \u200dand the proposed amendment?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  \u2063Ing Issue One, Dr. Haskell has essentially thrown his support behind a measure that\u2064 would allow for \u2062the revival of controversial abortion\u200d procedures like the partial-birth\u2064 abortion. This procedure, also \u2062known as \u200cintact dilation and extraction, involves \u200dpartially delivering the fetus before removing\u2062 it from the mother&#8217;s womb. \u200dIn 2003, the United States Congress passed a law banning\u2063 this \u2064procedure,\u200d except\u2062 when necessary to save the life of the mother.<\/p>\n<p>Opponents \u200cof the partial-birth abortion procedure argue \u200cthat it is inhumane \u200cand that \u200bit\u200b amounts to infanticide. Pro-life\u2064 activists have criticized Dr. Haskell&#8217;s donation, claiming that it shows a callous disregard for the sanctity of life.\u200b They argue that this move undermines\u200c the\u200b narrative that abortion should be safe, legal, \u200dand rare.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><h3>Reproductive Rights Advocate<\/h3>\n<p>Dr. Haskell, on the other\u200b hand, sees his donation \u2063as a way to protect women&#8217;s reproductive rights. He believes that Issue One will ensure that\u2064 women have access to safe and legal abortions, without \u200dunnecessary restrictions infringing \u200con \u2064their choices. \u200cAccording to Dr. Haskell, \u200cthe motivation behind his donation is to safeguard a woman&#8217;s right to \u2062make decisions about her own body.<\/p>\n<p>Pro-choice \u2062advocates have come out in support \u200bof Dr.\u200b Haskell&#8217;s contribution, \u200darguing that his donation\u2062 will help advance the cause of reproductive rights in\u200c Ohio. They believe that Issue One will not only protect\u200d women&#8217;s \u2064access to \u200dabortion services but also remove any stigma associated with the \u2064procedure.<\/p>\n<p><h3>Controversial\u200c Donation<\/h3>\n<p>The decision by Dr. Haskell to donate such \u2063a large sum of money to the campaign\u2063 supporting Issue One has\u200c stirred quite a \u2064controversy. \u200bPro-life\u200b groups and individuals \u200bare outraged and have vowed to fight against the\u2064 proposed amendment.<\/p>\n<p>Ohio Right to\u200b Life, one of the leading \u2063pro-life organizations in the \u2063state, has condemned \u2062Dr. Haskell&#8217;s contribution. They argue that\u2064 it is inappropriate for a doctor who pioneered a controversial abortion procedure to donate such a significant amount to a campaign that seeks to \u2064loosen restrictions on\u2063 the\u200d practice.<\/p>\n<p><h3>Legal\u2063 and \u200bMoral Implications<\/h3>\n<p>While the donation \u2062by Dr.\u200d Haskell is entirely legal, it raises important moral questions. Proponents of both sides of the abortion debate are now questioning if it is ethical for a doctor who profits from \u200ccontroversial procedures\u200b to use those funds \u200bto influence the political landscape and push for even greater access \u200bto such practices.<\/p>\n<p>As the debate rages on, it is clear that Dr.\u2063 Martin Haskell&#8217;s\u2063 generous donation to\u200c support Issue\u200c One has\u2063 ignited a firestorm of controversy. With both sides firmly entrenched in their positions, only time will tell how this will impact the\u2062 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/partial-birth-abortion-doctor-throws-100000-behind-ohio-issue-one\/\" title=\"Abortion doctor supports Ohio Issue One with 0,000.\">ongoing \u200bdiscussion surrounding abortion rights<\/a> in Ohio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Martin Haskell, creator of partial-birth abortion, contributed $100,000 to an Ohio initiative eliminating abortion restrictions.
