Episode Details

Lawmakers have just voted to scrap the mandatory three-day abortion waiting period, passing the bill 86 to 70 — a major win for reproductive rights advocates who say it removes a critical barrier for vulnerable women, especially those in rural areas or facing abuse. The move follows a 2022 review that recommended eliminating the delay, along with other reforms like decriminalizing certain medical actions. While this vote is a victory, other recommendations remain pending — now the bill heads to the health committee for deeper scrutiny before becoming law.
