Issues
How we speak about choice really matters.

Modified: 06/16/2005

Know your choice issues and answers.

PRO-CHOICE AND ANTI-CHOICE
No one is pro-abortion. Pro-choice is pro-life: the lives of women and the lives of children who are here.

WOMAN not MOTHER
A woman’s life is a human life.

FETUS not BABY
Abortions are not performed on viable babies.

SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE
Not everyone believes that life begins at conception. The First Amendment is for everyone.

ABORTION ON DEMAND IS A FALLACY
Reputable family planning facilities require a patient to go through an extensive process before a procedure.

WAITING PERIODS AND CONSENT OR NOTIFICATION LAWS KILL
Communication cannot be legislated. When faced with onerous obstacles, many women resort to dangerous, illegal abortions.

SEX SELECTION ABORTIONS DO NOT HAPPEN IN THIS COUNTRY
Women carrying fetuses with gender-related anomalies, such as Tay-Sachs, may choose an abortion.

CHOICE IS THE CENTRIST POSITION
With a choice, all women can live their personal values.

LATE TERM ABORTIONS ARE RARE
Dilation and Intact Extraction (D&X), improperly referred to as “partial birth” abortions, are only performed when the woman’s life or health is in danger or when the fetus has a condition inconsistent with life outside the uterus- approximately 600 a year.

KEEPING ABORTION LEGAL KEEPS ABORTION SAFE
Making abortions illegal does not stop them from happening, it stops them from happening safely.
