Addressing the Planned Parenthood Action Fund (7/17/2007), Obama promised that the first thing he would do as president is to sign the Freedom of Choice Act. The Freedom of Choice Act would invalidate any “statute, ordinance, regulation, administrative order, decision, policy, practice, or other action” of any federal, state, or local government or government official (or anyone acting under government authority) that would “deny or interfere with” a woman's right to an abortion. This includes overturning the following: parental consent and notification laws, restrictions on government (tax-payer) funding of abortions, and legal protections for health workers who refuse to participate in abortions due to conscience. Heil Obama!
