ABORTION LEAGUE FIGHTS AGAINST BUSH, WOMEN

WASHINGTON, Apr 2, 2001 (LSN.ca) - NARAL (the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League) finally feels as though it has organized itself sufficiently to fight back against what it is calling an "unprecedented, GOP-led assault on abortion rights," following the election of George W. Bush to the Presidency. NARAL's $40 million campaign, Fight4Choice, sounds ambitious. It is designed to "mobilize pro-choice Americans to block anti-choice Supreme Court appointments, restore pro-choice leadership in Congress, elect a pro-choice president and fight anti-choice policy initiatives at every level" by "build[ing] on NARAL's leadership as the political voice of the pro-choice movement."

Colleen Parro, executive director of the Republican National Coalition for Life, says that NARAL is "going to lose, because the truth will [win] out." Tim Lambert of the Republican National Committee told the Houston Chronicle last week that Bush's abortion stance is "more representative of American attitudes" than NARAL's. Concerned Women for America accused NARAL of launching "a fight against women." Communications Director Wendy Wright said, "any campaign that pushes abortion promotes the pain abortion inflicts on women."
