ROE V. WADE IS 39^TH AND THAT IS A DAMM GOOD THING

The Prairie States Region of the National Organization for Women recognizes and celebrates the 39^th Anniversary of the 1973 Supreme Court's decision in the case of Roe vs. Wade. In that “her-storic” decision the Court took the position that individuals must be free from, "unwarranted governmental intrusion into fundamental matters". What could be a more fundamental life decision than whether or not to bear a child. In the final moments we must give “her” that woman who takes all the risks the power to make the choice.

The National Organization for Woman is committed to the philosophy that women are on the clear moral high ground when it is time to making life altering decisions. These decisions, these medical decisions must be made without the interference-second guessing-and hateful rhetoric from, priests, preachers, congressmen or State Legislatures in lock step out of touch Governors, who sign legislation so hateful and mean spirited, that same “law” is rejected by a majority of the states voters in that same year.

In the past 12 months state legislators have been obsessed with a woman’s uterus. 100’s of bills, some becoming laws sailing within state houses, with little debate and less forethought. Laws designed strictly to prevent, restrict, and road block woman from exercising her Constitutional right to a legal and safe abortion. 24 million people are currently unable to find full time work. Unless you are a physician, nurse, or mid-wife, there are no jobs in a woman’s uterus.

 
The National Organization for Women is proud to stand with the majority of Americans in supporting a woman’s right to legal and safe abortion, but also total, unencumbered access to all forms of birth control. We will NOT go back-We will Fight-We will Prevail. “Failure is Impossible”.
