Italy Proposes €1,000 Monthly Aid for Mothers Who Turn Down Abortion

The Italian government could give 1,000 euros a month to economically disadvantaged women who choose not to have an abortion.

A bill, which is due to be tabled in the coming days, would award the monthly payments for five years to women who would have terminated their pregnancies due to financial hardship. Women who are on low household incomes and who are Italian citizens residing in Italy will qualify for the measures, Corriere della Sera reports.
