This Prime Minister Backs a Call For a Full Abortion Ban in Her Country

"If we want to reestablish order in Poland, we need to start with the most fundamental thing: the protection of human life."

On Wednesday, the Polish bishops published a letter to be read in churches on Sunday calling for a new abortion to fully protect the unborn. The direct reason for this public statement is a proposed law that will end up in Parliament soon after pro-life activists gather 100,000 signatures of support for the bill.
 
"If I had to make a prediction, I would say that the overwhelming majority, if not all, will vote for it."
 
Now Prime Minister Beata Szydło has also signaled her support for the measure, calling the bishop's letter a clear call for change.

Szydło, the third female prime minister of Poland, is a Catholic and a member of the conservative Law and Justice Party.
 
Pro-life activists can also count on the backing of another prominent figure in Polish politics, Jarosław Kaczyński, the leader of the Law and Justice Party. Aspch24.com reported, Kaczyński said, "I am a Catholic and my position is evident here."  While he repeated what Szydło pointed out about other party members voting differently, he added, "If I had to make a prediction, I would say that the overwhelming majority, if not all, will vote for it."
 
Mariusz Dzierżawski from the Right to Life Foundation, the organization that first proposed the change to the current law, called Kaczyński's statement "a good declaration."
 
The Ordo Iuris Institute, a legal organization, actually wrote the bill proposed by the Foundation. "I hope that the politicians will present a united moral front," said Jerzy Kwaśniewski, a lawyer from Ordo Iuris.  "If we want to reestablish order in Poland, we need to start with the most fundamental thing: the protection of human life."...
