Vote Against GA resolution Repeal: "Reproductive Freedoms"
Resolution Analysis
The last time a repeal of Reproductive Freedoms was proposed, our recommendation pointed out that the resolution was "a hard fought compromise, stemming from a vicious debate no one wishes to repeat." It protects the right of individual beings to make decisions regarding their own reproductive rights. It also gives governments room to regulate procedures to ensure safety and even discourage abortions, just not ban them outright. Recent repeal attempts continue to suggest that a replacement resolution should be enacted, but without an acceptable replacement already drafted and debated, it would be dangerous to individuals' reproductive rights to move forward with a repeal.
For these reasons, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends a vote against the resolution.
