Voluntary Termination Of Pregnancy
The Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy Law ( es, Ley de Interrupción Voluntaria del Embarazo; IVE) was approved by the National Congress of Argentina in 2020, legalizing abortion in Argentina. The first draft of the bill was created in 2006 by the National Campaign for the Right to Legal, Safe, and Free Abortion (''Campaña Nacional por el Derecho al Aborto Legal, Seguro y Gratuito''), which sought to have Congress consider it in seven different occasions, to no avail. In 2018, the bill was introduced into the legislative agenda, with the approval of then-PRO president Mauricio Macri, who was personally against it. It was approved by the Chamber of Deputies by a 129 to 125 margin on 13 June 2018, but failed to pass the Senate on 8 August 2018 by a 38 to 31 margin. In 2020, the bill was sent to Congress once again (with some modifications) by the administration of new Justicialist Party president Alberto Fernández, who explicitly backed the initiative. It was approved by the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Minor (law)
In law, a minor is someone under a certain age, usually the age of majority, which demarcates an underage individual from legal adulthood. The age of majority depends upon Jurisdiction (area), jurisdiction and application, but it is commonly 18. ''Minor'' may also be used in contexts that are unconnected to the overall age of majority. For example, the smoking age, smoking and legal drinking age, drinking age in the United States is 21, and younger people below this age are sometimes called ''minors'' in the context of tobacco and alcohol law, even if they are at least 18. The terms underage or ''minor'' often refer to those under the age of majority, but may also refer to a person under other legal age limits, such as the age of consent, marriageable age, driving age, voting age, etc. Such age limits are often different from the age of majority. The concept of ''minor'' is not sharply defined in most jurisdictions. The age of criminal responsibility and consent, the age at whi ...

Abortion In Cuba
Abortion in Cuba is legal and available upon request, which is rare in Latin America because of widespread Catholic influence. It is unlikely that the rest of Latin America will soon follow the Cuban model as politicians, social commentators, and church officials all tend to oppose abortion, citing reasons of religion and morality. Dr. Sosa Marin of the National Commission for Family Planning has stated that "the right to abort is the right of women and their partners." History Abortion in Cuba used to be limited to cases of harm to the mother or fetus and to cases of pregnancy because of rape. While the nature of this law was highly restrictive, the law itself was not strictly enforced, which meant that abortion was still accessible even before its legalization. Furthermore, prior to full legalization, which covered costs of abortion, private fees were relatively low, allowing most middle- and upper-class women to afford private abortions despite the law. However, as private abo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
