Abortion is a divisive issue and a national solution will upset many people so the regions should be able to decide the matter. I would also like to invite Governor LT onto the floor to speak on behalf of the amendment as a former Senator under the previous Constitution.

I agree with the Senator regarding this sentiment. It is very important that each region have the key ability to decide on the legality of abortion practice. As it stands, if abortion were nationalized, despite my previous support for that, each President could rescind or extend abortion protections. Thus, this bill puts more power into the hands of regions which I now fully support.
