A prominent leftist congresswoman has asked the Spanish government to “normalize abortion as a public health benefit.”

Carme Garcia of the United Left party, who recently also sent a written question to the government asking about the possibility of removing abortion as a crime from the country’s Penal code, justified her new demands based on a report by a pro-abortion feminist group that says only 2.9% of abortions are performed in public health care facilities.

In her previous inquiry, Garcia lamented the “numerous obstacles” and limitations still present in Spanish law that make it difficult to obtain abortions, and she asked the Socialist government for an opinion on whether or not to eliminate abortion as a crime from the Penal Code.
