Summary
A late-term abortion bill narrowly passed the Upper House by ten to nine, heading next to the lower house amid political tension. The Premier insists it won’t derail broader government priorities, while sponsor Sarah Game hinted she’d preferred more time to rally support. Outside Parliament, supporters cheered the vote, echoing November’s outcome. Current law allows abortions after 23 weeks only under strict medical conditions, but a proposed amendment would preserve exceptions for rare, tragic fetal abnormalities. The debate exposed deep divisions, with lawmakers weighing rare medical cases against protections for unborn life. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
