Mexico has taken a historical step with the supreme court's decision to decriminalize abortion. 

Mexico's Supreme Court unanimously ruled on Tuesday that penalizing abortion is unconstitutional, a major victory for women's health and human rights

The Mexican ruling opens the door to the possibility for the release of women incarcerated for having had abortions. It could also lead to US women in states such as Texas deciding to travel south of the border to terminate their pregnancies.
