To change the constitution, Macron can convene a special &#8220;congress&#8221; of both chambers of parliament. French President Emmanuel Macron said on Sunday that he plans to enshrine abortion rights in the constitution by next year to make them &#8220;irreversible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In a post on X, previously known as Twitter, Macron said a draft project would be submitted to the State Council, France&#8217;s highest administrative court, next week. It would then be presented to the Cabinet by the end of the year. &#8220;In 2024, the right of women to choose abortion will become irreversible,&#8221; Macron said. The announcement follows a pledge Macron made on March 8, International Women&#8217;s Day, that was seen as a response to the overturning of federal abortion rights in the United States. Last year, the US Supreme Court overturned a 50-year-old ruling and stripped women of constitutional protections for abortion.<\/p>\n<p>According to Macron&#8217;s office, Article 34 of the constitution would be amended to include that &#8220;the law determines the conditions by which is exercised the freedom of women to have recourse to an abortion, which is guaranteed.&#8221; Constitutional revision in France requires either a referendum or approval by at least three-fifths of the members of both chambers of parliament united in a &#8220;congress.&#8221; By presenting his own bill, rather than one that originated among lawmakers, Macron can convene such a &#8220;congress.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The termination of a pregnancy was decriminalized in France by a law passed in 1975, but there is nothing in the country&#8217;s constitution that guarantees abortion rights. Since then, successive laws have aimed to improve the conditions for abortion, in particular by protecting women&#8217;s health and anonymity, and by reducing the financial burden of the procedure on women. According to government figures, 234,000 abortions were performed in France last year. A November 2022 opinion poll found that 89 percent of respondents were in favour of making abortion rights constitutional.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/france-macron-promises-to-make-abortion-rights-irreversible\/a-67249137\">DW<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/119248\/\">France: Macron promises to make abortion rights irreversible<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[12043,561,1686,387,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-118010","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-abortation","tag-france","tag-macron","tag-rights","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118010","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=118010"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118010\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=118010"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=118010"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=118010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
