Truman, there are several other abortion restrictions passed in previous assemblies. I would support the bill as is but if our purpose is to liberalize abortion laws the other bills should be repealed or constrained. Hold on, I'll go look for them....

These are all the abortion related statutes currently in place:
https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Mideast_Public_Assistance_in_Abortion_Ban_Statute
https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/A.R._4:_2nd_Amendment_to_the_Mideast_Abortion_Statute_II
https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/A.R._4:_Mideast_Abortion_Sex_Protection_Act
Since the previous bills limited abortion to the first 6 weeks, repealing the Right to Life Act would only remove the waiting period and ultrasound. I favour the repeal of these other bills as well, but perhaps for a seperate act.

An amendment.

As for the naming of the bill, my interpretation is that the bill is intended to replace a bill regulating immigration and abortion with one which only relates to immigration. The abortion regulations which are repealed are trivial in my mind. Ultrasounds and waiting periods don't prevent abortion.

I am cancelling the vote upon hearing the news that the bill was vetoed after 7 days. The bill has already become law.
