From the article... “It is clear that Lily’s mother, who self-administered the drugs to induce a late term abortion, is filled with remorse and is relying on mental health services. The real fault in this tragedy lies strongly with abortion providers who pushed for dangerous home abortions, and are now using this case to push for abortion up to birth.”

The linked source could be properly called a Catholic Church house organ.

I found these less biased takes:

Both point out that pro-choice groups are calling for "full decriminalisation". Reading the analysis in Time magazine, I don't think that calling it "abortion up to birth" is a baseless exaggeration.
