Hello, Eluvatar!I'd like to ask you to vote FOR the current World Assembly resolution at vote, Repeal "On Abortion". This resolution will repeal the current resolution on the subject of abortion, "On Abortion", because it is flawed in several respects.The most important issue with "On Abortion" is that it requires member nations to permit a pregnant individual's next of kin to make abortion decisions on behalf of the pregnant individual when the pregnant individual is incapacitated, even in cases where the next of kin is not acting in the best interests of the patient. This means the next of kin could conceivably deny the pregnant individual a lifesaving abortion under the provisions of "On Abortion"."On Abortion" also fails to take a neutral stance on the abortion issue, compelling nations to legalize abortion in certain cases at all stages of pregnancy, including after fetal viability and even immediately prior to birth.After "On Abortion" is repealed, my intention is to pass a neutral replacement, "Convention on Abortion". This proposal grants member nations the right to legalize or regulate abortion without World Assembly interference, subject to a ban on forced abortions and a requirement that nations permit pregnant individuals to seek lifesaving medical treatment.Thank you in advance for your support.Regards,Martin RussellChief Ambassador, Auralian Mission to the World AssemblyThe Federation of Auralia
