Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : In 2018, after a compassionate but fierce campaign, almost two of every three Irish people voted to legalize abortion.
45% : Reproductive justice advocates as far back as 1994 understood that when women don't have access to abortion it generally means that we don't have access to a whole host of other rights: affordable contraceptives, comprehensive sex education, pre-natal care, even screening and treatment for a variety of diseases including cancer and HIV.
40% : I don't take this for granted, because this reality is worlds away from where I grew up - in Ireland, a country that only legalised abortion in 2018.
36% : In 1980 Irish women could not get condoms, divorce was illegal and abortion was shameful, illegal and dangerous.
34% : Before that condoms, divorce and abortion were illegal and shameful
