Polish parliament passes law allowing to hold referendum on election day

Polish politicians, Law and Justice party, members Ryszard Terlecki and Jaroslaw Kaczynski arrive the Polish parliament called The Sejm, for the law allowing to hold referendum on election day, in Warsaw, Poland, on August 16, 2023. The Polish parliament passed a law on Wednesday that will allow a national referendum to be held on the same day as parliamentary elections that are scheduled for October. The ruling nationalists Law and Justice (PiS) want Poles to answer four questions, in what some analysts view as a bid to mobilize the core electorate for an election they say is the most important since the fall of communism in 1989.

    Abortion Parliament Debate - Warsaw

    Jarosław Kaczynski is seen during the voting on the abortion bill in the parliament. The Polish Lawmakers in the lower house (Sejm) of parliament have voted in favour of sending all four different proposal of bills on abortion to a special commission. Two of the bills are aimed at legalising abortion up to the 12th week of pregnancy and another focuses on decriminalisation. The fourth, introduced by the conservative Third Way alliance, seeks a return to strict 1993 laws. Marta Lempart, the leader of the Women's Strike organization (Strajk Kobiet), also appeared in the Sejm, along with pro-abortion activists who were present at the session room. The traditionally Catholic nation has one of the most restrictive laws in Europe but the reality is that many women terminate pregnancies at home with pills mailed from abroad.
