In Poland, lawmakers have abruptly reversed their position on a proposed total abortion ban, after as many as 6 million Polish women poured into the streets across the country in a mass protest Monday. The proposed legislation would make all abortions illegal and punishable by up to five years in prison for patients who obtain them. Doctors could also be jailed for providing abortions.
