Contributing sentiments towards policy:
53% : Civil rights struggles rarely stand still: history shows us that momentous achievements, such as the popular vote to legalise abortion in Ireland in 2018, are often punctuated with periods where recently won rights are eroded.49% : In the words of Justice Sonia Sotomayer - in a dissenting opinion to the supreme court's decision to allow the law to be implemented while its constitutionality is determined in the coming years - it is a "breathtaking act of defiance of the constitution... and of the rights of women seeking abortion throughout Texas".
43% : But in Northern Ireland, women are still struggling to access abortion services despite abortion being legalised almost two years ago.
38% : Rather than leaving enforcement of the ban up to the state, the legislation allows anybody in the world to sue those involved in providing abortion care or practical support to women seeking abortion for at least $10,000 plus legal costs.
36% : The insidious oppression of women across the world must not be ignoredLast Wednesday, a near-total ban on abortion was implemented in Texas.
36% : And the anti-women's rights majority that now exists on the supreme court puts a woman's constitutional right to abortion, established back in 1973, at risk.
34% : A wealth of international evidence shows the futility of banning abortion; rates are no lower in countries where it is illegal or severely restricted, but many more women die as a result of being forced to seek illegal and unsafe procedures.
