Make abortion and bodily autonomy a legal right

Petition Details

Abortion is still regulated by law, not protected as a right. Every woman and pregnant person deserves the freedom to make decisions about their own body — free from interference.

Additional Information

I believe in equality, choice, and respect for all. Protecting abortion and bodily autonomy as a right in law would show that we truly value women’s freedom and equality — that our bodies, our choices, and our rights deserve the same respect and protection as any other.
