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.
