48% : Cosgrove, a fixture in Illinois lobbying for abortion rights, says the Youth Health and Safety Act is "the absolute last bill that I will ask anyone to take in the General Assembly because [passage] will bring Illinois back to what Roe v. Wade was in 1973," before Illinois enacted laws that tried to pare back the intent of the U.S. Supreme Court decision allowing abortion.
