Venezuelan feminist organizations protested on Monday to advance sexual and reproductive rights, and to call for decriminalization. The country has a strict abortion ban, but support networks and info sources for women who need abortion have “grown organically.”

The French gov't is claiming an "unfailing commitment" to abortion access. Sadly ironic, given the dire story posted here yesterday about growing access barriers in France. It shows that enshrining abortion rights in its constitution (despite a 14-week restriction!) was meaningless symbolism.

I've been saying this since the first child died. If you refuse to vaccinate your child, that's child endangerment. If they die because of your refusal, that's murder. It really is that black and white. We weren't allowed to refuse vaccines, it was mandatory. You couldn't go to school without it.
