Transcript | N.O.W. PLANS ABORTION ACTION On Monday, January 23, the Houston Area Chapter of N.O.W. will observe the fifth anniversary of the Roe v. Doe decision with a noontime leaflet at the Federal Building, 515 Rusk. In Roe v. Doe, the Supreme Court concluded "that the right of personal privacy includes the abortion decision..." The N.O.W. action will be taken both to demonstrate our continued commitment to the right to choose and to show our opposition to recent federal decisions limiting the use of federal funds for medicaid abortions. Using coathanger leaflets on abortion, the N.O.W. action will dramatize the suffering of poor women who are being forced to seek back alley abortions. Plan to attend the January 23 action, and bring a few coathangers to the January program meeting to join in the leaflet making. Your participation is vital. N.O.W.'s position is that there must be access to abortion for all women if we are ever to be truly equal. We must not permit the Congress, the Court, or the President to sacrifice the lives of poor women in their efforts to pacify the right-to-lifers. Poppy Northcutt |
