Nitzan Horowitz wants to make it easier for a woman to get an abortion: "We do not have the moral right to decide for her"
“An abortion revolution.”
That was the headline on Wednesday morning in one of Israel’s leading dailies, Yedioth Ahronoth, announcing that the country’s health minister wants to loosen “ridiculously outdated” abortion rules and make the process easier for women to terminate pregnancies.
Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz wants to remove as many obstacles as possible including scrapping the need for a committee for any woman up to 12 weeks of pregnancy and ending a policy that requires committee members to persuade women not to terminate.
