Argentine abortion bill clears 1st legislative hurdle 3 minutes read By Rodrigo Garcia Melero Buenos Aires, Dec 11 (efe-epa).- An abortion bill introduced by Argentine President Alberto Fernandez’s administration cleared an initial legislative hurdle early Friday, although it now faces a more daunting obstacle in the more conservative Senate. A total of 131 lower-house lawmakers voted in favor of the measure, which would allow the voluntary termination of pregnancies until the 14th week of gestation, while 117 legislators opposed the bill and six abstained. Under current law, abortions can only be legally performed in cases of rape or risk to a woman’s life or health.
