Personally, I'm opposed to abortion unless the woman's health is threatened. However, I'm not willing to dictate my take on that whereas it becomes law. I certainly can see some significant concern especially in areas of rape, incest, or mental illness, etc., and I am not willing to demand that a woman must carry through with her pregnancy if she feels incapable of doing so.
And it is both a religious and governmental issue, even if the government decides not to do anything about it. No matter which way the government goes with this, they have to make a decision. And as far as religion goes, most, including Judaism and Buddhism, oppose abortion with the exception mentioned above.
