Say It Ain't So Mr. O!

Often and repeatedly during his campaign Barack Obama emphatically promised, "The first thing I'd do is sign the Freedom of Choice Act." Will he keep his word? Let's hope not.

FOCA would abolish all pro-life regulations across the nation from parental notification laws to bans on federal funding on abortions. And make no mistake - FOCA eliminates all state laws regarding abortion.

All this despite a new nationwide survey that shows 4 in 5 adults would limit abortion in some way. Only 9 percent said abortion should be legal at any time and for any reason.

Thomas Jefferson wrote, "The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only legitimate object of good government."

If you're interested you can sign an online petition to fight FOCA. You can also contact your representatives and senators to tell them how you expect them to vote on this bill.
