ST. CHARLES, Mo. — Democrat Lucas Kunce is trying to pin reproductive care restrictions on Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), betting it will boost his chances of unseating the incumbent in November. In a recent ad campaign, Kunce accuses Hawley of jeopardizing reproductive care, including in vitro fertilization. Staring straight into the camera, with tears in her eyes, a Missouri mom identified only as Jessica recounts how she struggled for years to conceive. “Now there are efforts to ban IVF, and Josh Hawley got them started,” Jessica says. “I want Josh Hawley to look me in the eye and tell me that I...

Italy has long had one of the lowest birth rates in the EU, and the country is ageing at a much faster rate than other member states, and it appears to be getting worse. According to government statistics, the average number of children per Italian woman has dropped from 1.24 in 2022 to 1.2 in 2023. Experts say that if the country's population crisis continues, Italy’s population of 59 million could fall by almost 1 million by 2030. And the effects of the crisis are already being felt, with the ageing of the population causing problems for Italy's healthcare and pension systems. Addressing the...

Isabella Rosario Blum was wrapping up medical school and considering residency programs to become a family practice physician when she got some frank advice: If she wanted to be trained to provide abortions, she shouldn’t stay in Arizona. Blum turned to programs mostly in states where abortion access — and, by extension, abortion training — is likely to remain protected, like California, Colorado, and New Mexico. Arizona has enacted a law banning most abortions after 15 weeks. “I would really like to have all the training possible,” she said, “so of course that would have still been a limitati...

Los Angeles (AFP) - Arizona's Democratic governor on Thursday signed a bill overturning an 1864 law banning abortion, a month after the state's supreme court said the Civil War-era rule was valid. Katie Hobbs' move caps a quick turnaround in the swing state, which is expected to play a crucial role in this year's presidential election between incumbent Joe Biden and Donald Trump. "I am proud to sign this bill and provide a moment of relief for Arizonans," said Hobbs in a video posted on social media. "We still have work to do." When the repeal comes into effect in the summer, terminations will...

Arizona lawmakers on Wednesday repealed the permanent reintroduction of a 160-year-old abortion ban in the US state. In April, the state supreme court allowed the controversial 1864 law to be reinstated. The statute bans nearly all abortions, including those sought by survivors of rape or incest. Exceptions only apply if the life of the woman concerned is at risk. The law also imposes prison terms for doctors and others who aid in abortions. The Democratic governor, Katie Hobbs, must still sign the repeal of the 1864 into law, but this is considered a formality. The 1864 law had been blocked b...

Jacksonville (AFP) - US Vice President Kamala Harris sought to make Donald Trump the face of Florida's strict new abortion ban Wednesday as Democrats hammer the issue ahead of November's presidential election. "Across our nation, we witness a full-on assault, state by state, on reproductive freedom. And understand who's to blame: former president Donald Trump did this," Harris said in a Jacksonville, Florida speech. Florida's harsh new ban took effect Wednesday, outlawing all abortions after six weeks of pregnancy in a state that had been one of the last in the southern United States with a re...

Los Angeles (AFP) - Legislators in Arizona's upper house voted Wednesday to repeal an 1864 law banning abortion, a month after the state's supreme court said the Civil War-era rule was valid. The turnaround was the latest development in the fraught US abortion debate, which is expected to play a huge role in this year's presidential election, a likely rematch between President Joe Biden and Donald Trump. "I'm glad to see the Senate answered my call and voted to repeal the 1864 total abortion ban," the state's Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs wrote on social media. "While this is essential to pr...
