Bill: Abortion Act
Details
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 2457
Description[?]:
| Life starts at birth. What is a developing embryo? It is potential life; that is all. Why should we protect potential life? If that's the case, contraceptives should be banned and adults forced to procreate- that's all wasted potential life when two people choose not to do it or use contraceptives. |
