Rep. Tim Ryan, the Democratic candidate for Senate in Ohio who is going up against Trump endorsed JD Vance, told Fox News Host Bret Baier on Thursday that it should be "up to the woman" when she wants to get an abortion.
Ryan was asked by Baier, "As Senator, would you have any limits on abortion?"
Ryan replied, "Look, I think what we had established in Roe is something that we can continue to work with, and I think those can be the parameters."
He then pivoted and said, "But then again, if you get rid of established law, which in many ways was conservative, to keep that, ... if we move away from that, you're going to get states like Ohio, that have some of the most extreme laws in the whole country, where if you're a young girl wand you've been raped, or there's been incest, the state, the government is going to force you to bring that baby to term ..."
Baier interjected to bring the conversation back to the original question and said, "I get all that, Congressman, but my question was about any limits to abortion at any point. Late term, anything?"
"Look, you gotta leave it up to the woman," was Ryan's response.
"So, 'no' is the answer," said Baier.
Ryan replied, "Well, you and I sitting here can't account for all of the different scenarios that a woman dealing with the complexities of a pregnancy are dealing with. How can you and I figure that out?"
