Obama Makes Promise to Planned Parenthood
by Jennifer Mesko, managing editor
The so-called Freedom of Choice Act could wipe away every state law limiting abortion.
Last year, presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., made a promise to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund:
"The first thing I'd do as president is sign the Freedom of Choice Act," he said.
The so-called Freedom of Choice Act could wipe away every state law limiting abortion, undoing decades of legal work, research and educational successes.
Obama has co-sponsored the legislation with 18 other senators. The bill has the support of 109 members of Congress.
"Thirty-five years after Roe, abortion supporters, like Senator Obama, are dismayed that abortion remains a divisive issue and that their radical agenda has not been submissively accepted by the American public," writes Denise M. Burke, vice president of Americans United for Life.

QUOTEWORTHY
"We are knee-deep in a culture of death. … Our moment in history is marked
by a mortal conflict between a culture of life and a culture of death. God put us in the
world to do noble things, to love and to cherish our fellow human beings, not to destroy them.
Today, we must choose sides."
— The late U.S. Rep. Henry Hyde,
in support of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, which finally became law in 2003
