Ohio taxpayers could claim “conceived children” as dependents on their taxes under a bill recently introduced in the General Assembly.
The bill began after state Rep. Gary Click, R-Vickery, championed a “personhood” bill that would have created rights for embryos and fetuses at the moment of conception. That bill wasn’t moved by the legislature, but a critic of the bill asked Click if the bill allowed embryos and fetuses to be claimed on taxes.
