Lower the abortion limit to 20 weeks

Additional Information

Petition asking for the lowering from 24 to 20 weeks at which abortion can take place for personal reasons. Due to the advancements in medicine, a baby born at 21 weeks can survive. There are now a high number of 24 week old premature babies surviving. It shouldn't be legal that a mother can terminate her pregnancy later than the time at which a fetus can survive.
