GOP Conservatives Build On Own Planks
Conservative supporters of Ronald Reagan dominate the Republican platform process in Detroit steering planks against the Equal Rights Amendment and toward a constitutional abortion ban.

Delegates question Anderson pledged support as he rests with 13 Massachusetts delegates at stake.
