Summary
New polling reveals overwhelming Australian support for abortion access, especially as lawmakers prepare to vote on a bill that would restrict late-term procedures. Surprisingly, 84% of One Nation voters back abortion rights — defying their party’s stance. Greens lead in support, followed by Labor and Liberal-National Coalition voters. In South Australia, the only state tracking abortion data, late-term abortions (after 22 weeks) are rare — under 1% — performed only for serious medical reasons. The proposed bill, targeting procedures after 25 weeks and removing key exemptions, could disproportionately impact rural communities already struggling with access. This is the third major attempt to reshape abortion law in SA since 2024, and a vote looms soon. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
