Mexico’s Supreme Court decriminalizes abortion

(Worthy News) – Mexico’s Supreme Court unanimously ruled Wednesday to decriminalize abortion across the predominantly Roman Catholic country, calling the existing federal ban on abortion “unconstitutional.”
“The First Chamber of the Court ruled that the legal system that penalizes abortion in the Federal Criminal Code is unconstitutional, since it violates the human rights of women and people with the capacity to gestate,” Mexico’s Supreme Court said.
Abortion has been legally accessible in only 12 of Mexico’s 32 states before Wednesday’s ruling, which is the latest in a series of wins for reproductive rights across Latin America. [ Source: UPI (Read More…) ]
