In 1974, the Veil law entered French history.
Will it make its entry into its Constitution fifty years later?
The only certainty is that this path passes through the Senate this Wednesday, February 28, which will examine at snack time the draft constitutional law aimed at engraving “the freedom to resort to abortion” in the strongest of marbles.
If the deputies voted very largely in favor, the majority of the right and the center, the majority in the Luxembourg Palace, seem much less ready to want to endorse this text as we subscribe to the obvious.
For months now, the loudest voice in the Senate has been repeating that it is not in favor of this registration.
President (LR) Gérard Larcher repeats that while being a tireless defender of voluntary termination of pregnancy, its place is not in the Constitution, which must not become “a catalog of social rights”.
“There is no threat to this right in France,” repeats the head of the LR senators, Bruno Retailleau, on the same line, believing that this draft text was inspired by American news, where the right to abortion is increasingly disrupted.
