In a historic referendum, Irish voters have repealed one of the world’s more restrictive abortion bans. The “yes” vote won 66 percent in Friday’s referendum, which deals a blow to Ireland’s conservative Catholic Church and repeals the 1983 measure that banned abortion under almost all circumstances. Women across Ireland celebrated the results of the referendum over the weekend. This is Janine Fretwell in Dublin.

Janine Fretwell: “For all women in Ireland, it is just momentous. And nobody has to travel anymore; they can be looked after in their own country. And I work in that profession, have done for 10 years, and I can’t tell you—it’s brought me to tears today that this has actually happened. It’s just incredible.”

After headlines, we’ll go Ireland for more on the historic referendum.
