Legislation has been proposed in France seeking to “enshrine the respect for abortion” in the country’s constitution after Roe v Wade was reversed by the US Supreme Court and several states immediately enacted “trigger” laws that make abortion illegal.
Auruore Berge, head of President Emmanuel Macron’s party in the National Assembly, told French radio on Saturday that she’d tabled the bill to counter “fierce opponents” of abortion among France’s far-right National Rally.
