Senate votes 267-50 in favor of the constitutional revision bill aimed at including the “guaranteed freedom of women to resort to abortion’ Emmanuel Macron quickly commented on X (ex-Twitter), confirming that he would convene the Congress on March 4. Gérard Larcher's chief of staff, who chaired the end of the session, had been informed shortly before by the secretary general of the Élysée Alexis Kohler.

“I am committed to making women's freedom to have an abortion irreversible by enshrining it in the Constitution,” Macron said.
