Mexico’s supreme court has decriminalized abortion across the country, two years after ruling that abortion was not a crime in one northern state.
That earlier ruling had set off a grinding process of decriminalizing abortion state by state. Last week, the central state of Aguascalientes became the 12th state to decriminalize the procedure. Judges in states that still criminalize abortion will have to take account of the top court’s ruling.
The supreme court wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, that it had decided that “the legal system that criminalized abortion in the Federal Penal Code is unconstitutional, [because] it violates the human rights of women and people with the ability to gestate.”
As a Mexican, no thank you, its yours now.
Lmao can’t agree more
California returning to Mexico would be a good thing for the US
California generates about 15% of the United States GDP. If it was its own country it’d have about the 6th highest GDP in the world.
So no, it returning to Mexico would in fact not be a good thing for the U.S.
Probably one of those people who buys the social media BS claiming California is a “liberal hellscape”.
That notion is hilarious to me as a Texan that used to travel up and down the west coast regularly for work. I’ve been to many areas of California that are just as red as any rural areas in Texas. It’s exactly the same as every other state(I’ve been to 48 of the 50 at least several times each state). Rural areas tend to be skewed red, urban tends to be skewed blue. I guess the simplicity of that is hard to see if all the online content you consume is propaganda…
What kind of silly notion is that?
That would take a lot of federal tax dollars away from states you probably like.
We’d rather take Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, and Idaho make a demented little western federation of sorts. Also Idaho and Arizona are being taken for resource rights.
Idaho is right next to Utah. You wouldn’t want to be there when the Great Salt Lake dries up in a few years.
