IVG in the Constitution: bishops express their “sadness” after the Senate vote. “Abortion, which remains an attack on life at its beginning, cannot be seen solely from the angle of women's rights,” underlines the body of the Catholic Church in a press release.
In recent months, several bishops have spoken out against the constitutionalization of abortion, a commitment by President Emmanuel Macron on March 8, 2023. It is "an admission of weakness on our ability to debate calmly on the subject of abortion," said Archbishop of Rennes Pierre d'Ornellas on Vatican Radio in October.
