It's legal in all 50 states. Yet, despite it being a Constitutional right, we still have conservatives attempting to undermine it by every means at their disposal (for example, in Texas, it's legal as it must be, but that hasn't stopped the state from attempting to shut down most of the clinics by putting onerous requirements on them).
As a law student, I don't consider abortion a right per se, but a requirement to complement the Right to Family Planning. In other words, family rights is a principle and the right to abort is a sub-principle. I had an idea it was illegal in some states. Is it really legal just because the woman wants? In any circumstances? Religious nuts will continue to exist for a while

Remember the part where I'm married to a catholic girl?
I saw how it worked from the other side.... and the typical pictures were circulating in pamphlets against abortion... The ones where you see fetuses being cut to pieces while still inside the woman's belly... something that is only done by the 20th week of gestation... not the 10th, which is what was proposed, back then.
Lies and false information was given to the pro-lifers... The game is always the same, ever since the first religion...

I don't remember such pictures, I was a kid back then, heck I wasn't even in high school, I really can't say anything about it, but I recall (I'm assuming you are portuguese too) PCP and BE (no offense but I despise both parties equally, they have no utility) being very vocal about legalizing abortion as a supreme woman right. Is your marriage good even though you think differently? My girlfriend is also a christian.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
