Help us stop forced abortions from becoming law in Russia!!!
CLOSED: The bill was withdrawn.
Great thanks to all who helped us!
There is a new bill (N527279-6) in the Russian Duma (parliament) that will force mothers into abortion!
This horrific new attack on the right to life would create a bad precedent, and legalize abortion upon any preborn child at any stage of development (even third-trimester fully developed babies), despite any pre-stated objections by the "full-aged" (adult) mother, if she is incapacitated. It gives full power to a legal representative to petition a court for a forced abortion.
According to current abortion law in Russia, late-term abortions are only allowed on a so-called "medical basis" (usually for eugenic reasons, like children with Down Syndrome, etc). This bill would supersede that, and must be opposed!
We need the help of activists and supporters across the globe to stop this horrific attack on preborn children and incapacitated mothers.
