This Bill is not about protecting women. It is a deliberate, dishonest and racist attack on reproductive rights imported straight from the far-right playbook
Today in Parliament, Abigail vehemently opposed the Abortion Law Reform Amendment (Sex Selection Prohibition) Bill 2025 as a bad-faith, evidence-free attempt to chip away at abortion rights through incremental restrictions, a tactic borrowed directly from the US far right that will not prevent sex-selective abortions (which are not happening) but will create real and disproportionate barriers to reproductive healthcare.
