French Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne Saturday expressed the French government’s support for a bill to add abortion rights to France’s constitution for future generations. Borne wrote that this right must be written in the constitution on behalf of all women and for human rights.
Marie-Pierre Rixain, a member of parliament who co-tabled the bill, wrote on social media that what was happening elsewhere, regarding US abortion bans, must not happen in France.
While the right to abortion in France was established by a law in 1975, which decriminalized abortion, French government officials strive to solidify the right to abortion as a constitutional right.
This push for abortion rights in France comes a day after the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, a 50-year-old ruling, through holding in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that there is no US constitutional right to abortion.
Earlier in 2022, France extended the legal limit for pregnancy termination from 12 to 14 weeks.
