March 8 , 2010 block of deputies as New Encounter presented his project to enshrine abortion on demand until week 14 of pregnancy as an inalienable right of all women.
is the first time in 27 years of democracy that a block is committed supporter of legalized abortion as a public policy imperative to comply with human rights. It is also the first time a political party assumes the challenge of expanding legal abortion up to week 14 of pregnancy, according to current international standards.
Before this March 8, International Women's day, Congress and political parties understand the legalization of abortion as a "Conscience": the blocks do not take positions as such, "let every legislator to vote according to their own convictions."
Under the makeup of "cutting partnerships" were buried without treatment over 40 proposals to legalize abortion. These projects were presented and accompanied by many deputies and deputies with social organizations, ignored / os for their own / peers you / I block. And with them social justice for women, universal access to our health, our most basic human rights.
Legalizing abortion is a measure of necessity and urgency, women abort illegally on average 2 times in our lives, 500,000 clandestine abortions per year, 1 abortion per minute. At least 100 women will die this year as a direct and exclusive consequence of the prohibition of abortion. According to WHO and the Human Rights Committee UN Human Rights in countries where abortion was legalized, immediately dropped to zero deaths. Congress must prevent these deaths and end the torture of secrecy and impunity for the deaths of over 3000 poor women over the past 27 years.
is a measure of social justice and redistribution of wealth. The business of the abortion ban bill $ 1 million a day. Money that comes directly from the hours worked in sweatshop conditions for the poorest women and going to the monopoly of a few pockets and medical laboratories. Clandestine abortion is an everyday experience for all women, but only the poor we are dying from clandestine abortions while the rich pay up to 5,000 pesos and more clinics and private clinics.
is a measure of equal opportunity. Ensuring the universal right to abortion for all women reflects the highest standards in terms of economic, social and cultural rights. Expand access to free abortion up to week 14 of pregnancy allows a huge number of women accessing the public health system, access is now does not exist. The
and legislators have a responsibility to legislate and approve all bills to ensure greater equality of opportunity for access and exercise of human rights. Legalizing abortion is not a matter of conscience, is a national issue that requires the commitment of partisan blocs.
The meeting held today in the House of Representatives by Rep. Cecilia Merchán South Project is certainly a big step in that direction. The deputies and deputies Maria Luisa Storani and Hugo Castanon (UCR), Liliana Parada, Victoria Donda, Cecilia Merchán (South Project), Nelida Belous (Project Progressive), pledged to promote This year the legalization of abortion in about 50 people, representatives of organizations such as the Ministry of Gender of the CTA, the Women's Collective Juana Azurduy, Mujeri, tangled for a Free Choice, Conuranas, the National Campaign for legal abortion safe and free, and Lesbians and Feminists for the decriminalization of abortion.
