Urgent action: the new anti abortion legislation in the Spanish State, “Anteproyecto de Ley Orgánica del Aborto” ("Protección de la vida del concebido y derechos de la mujer embarazada") is going to parliament on Friday 27th of June. The Women´s Assembly from 15M-Marea Granate London calls on those who believe this new legislation is a direct assault on women´s rights, rights that Spanish women fought tooth and nail for.
The whole of society suffers when women are denied their rights.
Show your support if you think this is an unfair, violent, reactionary and patriarchal legislation.
The fight must go on!
- 47.000 women die annually around the world when abortion is not provided safely.
- under the current legislation (2010), abortion rate decreased in more than 5000 cases.
- more restrictive laws do not guarantee that abortions will not take place.
