Obama Supports Freedom of Choice Act
(CNSNews.com) - Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) supports the Democrats' Freedom of Choice Act, putting him in line with the American Civil Liberties Union on abortion and in conflict with pro-life groups.
Following a July 17, 2007 speech to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, Obama was asked what he would do at the federal level, not only to ensure access to abortion but to make sure that the judicial nominees he might pick "are true to the core tenets of Roe v. Wade?"
"Well, the first thing I'd do as president is, is sign the Freedom of Choice Act," Obama said. "That's the first thing I'd do."
