Abortion Amendment Faces Likely Senate Defeat
The AP reports Senator Orrin Hatch concedes not enough votes exist to pass a constitutional abortion ban amendment in the Senate. Hatch, sponsor of the measure, expects a close vote with about 50 percent backing, while opponents claim the votes to defeat the amendment are present. The stake rests on two-thirds approval, and the debate continues as leaders weigh votes and strategy. In Dallas, Texas joins the national shift after 1973 to 1982 abortion statistics from the Alan Guttmacher Institute show rising abortions and more clinics, amid ongoing pro and anti abortion activism.

San Antonio mayor vows to fight future KKK rallies
Mayor Henry Cisneros pledged to block further Ku Klux Klan demonstrations after the second rally in two months. About 40 Klansmen marched in 100 degree heat, costing the city roughly 40 thousand dollars for the one-hour event. Police reported no incidents as about 650 spectators jeered from behind barricades. City officials consider peace bonds to recover costs and hope this ends the Klan era in San Antonio.
