USA – Thousands demonstrate against threatened restrictions on abortion rights – Oklahoma signs restrictive law

There were large anti-abortion and pro-abortion demonstrations in Washington, New York, Boston, Los Angeles and Seattle. The background is the draft of a verdict by the US Supreme Court, which the magazine “Politico” is available. As a result, a landmark ruling from 1973 is to be overturned, according to which abortions are allowed at least until the viability of the fetus – around 24 weeks – is allowed. The court confirmed the authenticity of the document, but emphasized that it was not a final decision act.- The US state of Oklahoma has banned abortion after the sixth week before the final decision of the Supreme Court. That’s what Republican Governor Stitt wrote on twitter. However, Oklahoma allows exceptions for later abortions in medical emergencies, after rape or incest.-
