Clark Responds to President Bush's Signing of the Late Term Abortion Bill

"I am deeply disappointed that President Bush has chosen to make a political statement by signing an anti-choice bill which contains no exception for the life and health of the mother. This bill is unconstitutional, and it sacrifices the health and safety of American women. We should not stand for President Bush's attempts to return this country to the dark days before Roe v. Wade. I stand with the United States Constitution, the United States Supreme Court, and the majority of the American people in believing that our government has no right to come between a woman, her family, and her doctor in making such a personal and private decision."
