Bill: Abort! abort!
Details
Submitted by[?]: National Socialist Party
Status[?]: passed
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: August 3000
Description[?]:
| Currently our laws permit interruption to pregnancy only on medical emergencies that would endanger the mother, we propose for this law to permit abortion up to the first trimester. A fetus only develops a brain in the last part of the trimester of pregnancy, and thus it shouldnt be considered a human being, on the other hand we propose to stablish "schools have an obligation to give sexual education at some point in puberty, but individual students have an opt-out option" this way we dont only give the choice to abort, but we also give students the right to learn about their bodies and this way we can avoid stds as well as unwanted pregnancies. |
