Obama v. Bush on Abortion
Also in the spirit of the Roe v. Wade anniversary, here's an interesting short article that sums up the different approach Obama will take toward abortion and sex education. "President Obama was an original co-sponsor of legislation to expand access to contraception, health information, and preventive services to help reduce unintended pregnancies. Introduced in January 2007, the Prevention First Act will increase funding for family planning and comprehensive sex education that teaches both abstinence and safe sex methods. The Act will also end insurance discrimination against contraception, improve awareness about emergency contraception, and provide compassionate assistance to rape victims." |
