Lawmakers in Argentina spent Wednesday afternoon and the entire night debating whether to allow women to have abortions in the first 14 weeks of pregnancy.
A vote on a draft bill is due to be held in the lower house later on Thursday.
Deputies have been split almost evenly in the highly divisive debate and the result could go either way.
If approved, the bill will still have to go to the Senate.
President Mauricio Macri is strongly opposed to the bill but has said that he would not veto it if it was passed by Congress.
