Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker scaled back the amendment expanding abortion access to minors by changing portions of the proposal, a report says.
Gov. Baker only partially approved the state s budget of $46 million for the pro-abortion amendment, which would ve lowered the age by which pregnant women will be able to abort their unborn children without their parents consent, Live Action reported. These are important changes to protect a women s reproductive rights and autonomy in the commonwealth, and I support them. However, I cannot support the other ways that this section expands the availability of late-term abortions and permits minors age 16 and 17 to get an abortion without the consent of a parent or guardian, Baker told Live Action.
