“If your mother had had an abortion, you would not be president of the Supreme Court”: A Mexican senator rebukes Arturo Zaldívar and he responds
During his visit to the Senate for the ‘Belisario Domínguez’ award ceremony, the president of the Supreme Court of Justice of Mexico, Arturo Zaldívar, was criticized by the legislator of the conservative National Action party Martha Márquez for his position in favor of abortion.
The senator appeared in Congress last Tuesday with a banner that read: “If your mother had an abortion, you would not be president.”
Hours later, through his social networks, Zaldívar commented that his motherhood had been desired, and added: “If it hadn’t been like that, I hope that at that time she would have been able to exercise her reproductive rights. All rights for all women,” she defended.
My mother’s maternity was desired. Had it not been so, I wish that at that time she would have been able to exercise her reproductive rights. All rights for all women. https://t.co/X37MSTYQBY
