Bill Protecting Abortion Rights Passes Colorado Senate, Heads To Governor's Desk
The Reproductive Health Equity Act passed the Colorado State Senate and is now on its way to the governors desk for his signature.
HB22-1279 saw a lot of support and opposition, leading to nearly 24 hours of debate, before a final state House vote earlier this month.
The bill gives every pregnant person a right to choose to continue their pregnancy or have an abortion. It also states that a fertilized egg, embryo, or fetus does not have independent rights under the laws of Colorado.
With the governors expected signature, Colorado will join 15 states and Washington D.C. in protecting a womans legal right to an abortion.

Gov. Polis has said he will sign it. The shame is, this should not be necessary but the demented right in our country is determined to seize control of women's bodies. The christo-fascists must be stopped.
