What does it mean to be Pro-Choice? It means defending the rights of women to prevent unintended pregnancy with education and birth control, to choose legal abortion, and to access the pre-natal care they need to have healthy children.

NARAL Pro-Choice America The Baltimore City Council is set to vote tonight on "truth-in-advertising" requirements for anti-choice crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs). NARAL Pro-Choice Maryland backs the bill and says, "It's just asking [CPCs] to disclose what is true"

Both sides of the abortion debate will be focusing on Baltimore on Monday, when the City Council is expected to approve a first-in-the-nation law that would impose new regulations on faith-based organizations that try to steer women away from the procedure.

Hi Elizabeth: We at NARAL Pro-Choice America believe that all women, regardless of their economic circumstances, should have equal access to reproductive-health services, including abortion care. Unfortunately, we lack the votes necessary to remove many barriers women face. However, we continue to educate lawmakers about the adverse effect these discriminatory measures, like the Hyde amendment, have on women. Thanks for expressing for your concern.

Young women and men need to be reminded what it was like before Roe v Wade. Most take their reproductive choices as a given and don't realize what it would be like without the right to choose what's best for them as individuals. If they knew what they could loose maybe they'd fight hard for what they have now.

I know it's too far from now to affect the outcome of this mess either way, but the least that needs to happen is that "Stupid" Stupak loses his next bid for re-election and the reason made very public afterward by myriads of justifiably angry women with plenty of media exposure. Those on the other side have very big mouths and have no trouble ... Read Moremaking themselves heard and claiming to speak for all of us; there needs to be a definitive and unambiguous response to people like that from our own side.

WASHINGTON — Abortion rights groups, outflanked and outnumbered in the health debate, are scrambling to regain lost ground after the House passed a health bill with strict abortion limits.

The right to choose needs to be defended, by force if necessary, against those who USE FORCE to try to take it away. Resistance against oppression needs to be peaceful, but NOT passive. Roe vs. Wade was not just achieved by fighting in the courtroom, but by fighting and protesting on the streets. The criminal and violent acts the anti-abortion militants have perpetrated have been shocking, but, judging by these recent developments in Congress, it appears to be working rather well for them.
