[PASSED] Access to Abortion

[Tarchuna and Ravenna]

Me too, for the same reasons.

And define “patriarchal”.

[United Massachusetts]

You are going against the National Sovereignty of every nation, and deciding that they MUST allow abortion, although they may be against it. Would you like it if someone passed a proposal that made it illegal to be homosexual in every WA nation?

You're not doing something that I would support, or any others like me want done in our nations, you're doing something YOU support and want done in every single nation. You're forcing your views on every nation and deciding what they do within their borders is your business.

This isn't a proposal that many people will agree on, this is a proposal about pushing the leftist agenda on every single nation, regardless of their political views.

I am absolutely against this.

Correction: the WA already requires the legalization of abortion in all cases. This would force member nations to fund trips to paid "abortionplexes" that the authors intended to fashion like resort casinos. It's vastly worse than even what you're describing.

Oh, God above, that is much worse. So much worse.

Yes, thank you for that correction.

[Tarchuna and Ravenna]

If this ever goes to vote, we must fight against it with all of our power.

200% Opposed. Abortion is not a goddamn vacation.

[Hillary Clinton 2016-2024]

I will fight against this with everything I have.

I would not expect Massachusetts to ever support anything but fully legalized infanticide. A welcome surprise.

[Tarchuna and Ravenna]

Finally, a liberal who values human life.

[The Surintasian Union]

no thanks

"Correction, ambassador: It isn't a vacation yet."

“Any self-respecting Head of State would at least reply to our rebuttals.”

“Any self-respecting Head of State would at least reply to our rebuttals.”

-Valens, First Lord Admiral

"First, Ambassador Bell isn't a head of state. As I understand, his assignment here is more a punishment by his higher-ups than anything else. Second, I do believe the Separatist ambassador did reply to your rebuttal. That you were not satisfied with the reply is an entirely different matter."

"I was briefly head of state of the micronation of the C.D.S.P. WA Mission, which held sovereignty solely within the third floor men's restroom, but apparently the powers that be disapproved of my insistence on being treated as a sovereign and not an almost-exiled diplomat, and my funding was cut until I abdicated. Perhaps the new President, Hewitt, will show mercy upon my beleaguered soul?"

[The New Sicilian State]

"Just to clarify, clause 4b establishes clinics which offers free childcare, correct? My sister has asked me to support on the grounds that she hasn't slept in three days and would like a nap."

[Auze]

"Opposed. Anyway, I don't think that's what 'whereas' means."

Sex-selective abortions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this resolution and unless otherwise indicated by resolution, members may restrict access to or section 2 funding for an abortion if a sex-selective basis impels its request.

"So, ignoring our bugging of every room in the 3 abortion clinics in Auze, how do we tell if the abortion is due to the sex of the offspring? Should we mandate the writing of a ten page essay in MLA format on why the person wants an abortion?"

"You could, you know, ask the woman in question, and then... oh, I have an idea, trust her word? I also suspect that the 3 abortion clinics are insufficient for your country size, which means your citizens will get to use the abortionplex instead of your native clinics, giving women increased freedom from surveillance. I would also hypothesise that the bugging is against at least one World Assembly resolution clause somewhere, but I can't be bothered to check."

OOC Edit: This has 31 approvals vs. 32 for the repeal. I would squeal of joy if this gained quorum first.

"You're not doing something that all of your citizens would support, or any others like them in other member states, you're doing something YOUR LEADER supports and wants done to every single person. You're forcing your views on every person and deciding what they do within their own bodies is your business."

[Charax]

Market research suggests that individuals killed before birth are unlikely to be prolific consumers of DisneyCorp products and services, so we oppose this draft. We will continue to advocate for the rolling back of existing resolutions on this issue, which are heavy-handed enough without this disastrous proposal making things even worse.

"So a viable fetus that could live independently is a part of a person? Anyhow, this bill is not the same as the dreaded GAR#286, which is what you seem to be all discussing. This bill would result in taxpayers paying for things they believe fundamentally wrong and at odds with their religious beliefs. Taxpayers should not be forced to pay for something they believe is murder, and for that reason, against."

"Ambassador, I am confident your tax money is used for things you dislike every day. That is a poor argument, unless you would ban war, for example."

"I am sure the principled nation of Agarntrop also funds her armies by cookie sales or public subscription? Right? Because in no way would you just have lied and made a fool of yourself?"

"Ambassador, that does not follow. That you may have to personally contribute to something you disagree with is not itself an argument against doing so. Nor either is it an obligation that I mandate absurd and societally unhelpful acts to satisfy your wound to your pride."

[Marxist Germany]

"I am frankly appalled."
