Rights leader campaigns Kerry at UNH in abortion rights plea
Genevieve Giambanco reports that NARAL president Kate Michelman urged students and press at the University of New Hampshire to back John Kerry, arguing Bush would appoint conservative justices and threaten Roe v. Wade. She warned the next president could fill two to three Supreme Court vacancies, risking abortion rights. Michelman cited Justices Scalia and Thomas as examples of strict constitutionalists and stressed the election’s pivotal nature for women’s rights and broader protections.
