Bush says he'll veto pro-choice legislation
In a letter to Congressional leaders, President Bush said that he would veto any legislation that suported choice.
In a two-page letter sent to the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, and the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, Mr. Bush said his veto threat would apply to any measures that “allow taxpayer dollars to be used for the destruction of human life.”
Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America said, "George W. Bush essentially told the new Congress that he wants to continue denying millions of women access to essential medical services, including family planning and safe, legal abortion, even if it means jeopardizing their health. Just how is that 'pro-life'?"
Indeed.
