Nation's Leading Pro-Choice Advocate Speaks Out in Support of John Kerry's Commitment to Protecting a Woman's Right to CHoose
Statement of Interim President Elizabeth Cavendish
(Washington, DC) - - NARAL Pro-Choice America knows, based on John Kerry’s record in the U.S. Senate, and the positions he has articulated as a candidate for President, that Roe v. Wade would be safe in his hands if he is elected President. He is an unwavering supporter of a woman’s right to choose as well as the privacy rights guaranteed in the Constitution.
We also know that based on everything George Bush has ever said or done about choice that Americans’ rights are in severe peril, and if he is president for four more years, women will lose the right to choose. His record of nominating the most vehemently anti-choice judges and his recess appointments of the most extreme anti-privacy judicial activists prove that President Bush will fulfill his promise to “do everything in my power to restrict abortion.”
The future holds multiple vacancies on the Supreme Court. The only way we can prevent losing our fundamental rights is to make sure John Kerry is elected in November.
