French Senate voted in favor of including abortion in the Constitution. Emmanuel Macron has since summoned parliamentarians, who will participate in a Congress in Versailles on March 4, in order to once again vote on the text.
France could thus become the first country to include the right to abortion inThe Constitution. “I am extremely relieved that the Senate has not hindered this project to constitutionalize abortion,” declared Anne-Cécile Mailfert, president of the Women’s Foundation.
