Ohio Democrat Teresa Fedor speaks out during abortion debate to reveal she has been raped and is interrupted by laughter from Republicans
An Ohio politician was interrupted by laughter from opposing party members during an impassioned speech in which she revealed that she had been raped.
Teresa Fedor, a Democrat State Representative, became so incensed during a debate on a bill to ban all but the earliest abortions that she stood up and spoke for the first time about her own personal experience with the issue.
House Bill 69, known as the Heartbeat Bill, would ban abortions in Ohio as soon as a fetal heartbeat could be detected by doctors in some cases as early as six weeks.
It has proved controversial in a state where such a law is unlikely to ever be agreed by the Senate and would probably be struck down by the US Supreme Court, which has generally ruled that states cannot impose abortion limits until around the 24-week mark.
