TO: Mrs. ~ Ford FOOM ~ Sheila -- JULY 1 SUPREME COURT DECISION ON· ABORTION ··. 1 1. The Court ruled that a State may define •viability'" as -~ "the--stage of feta1 development when the life of the unborn-child may be continued indefinitely outside the "WOmbby natural. or artiCicial life-supportive s:Ystems.• But the Court ruled. the actual. time of vi.ability should he the.jud9JDen,t 0£ the attendinq physician and should~ he fixed by State l.aw. ,, 2. States may require a woman's written consent before the abortion to say her consent is "in£ormed and freely given ' I and is not the result of coercion." 3. The State may~ constitutional.ly re.qui.re the consent of the husband as .a condition of abortion during the fir.st 12 weeks- of the pregnancy. ('rhis is the period during which the State cannot regulate or prevent an abortion. and the decision is solely between the woman and her doctor.) The Court said that if the State cannot intervene. then neither. can- th& husband.. COurt said that althOugb it reccignized the importance . Th~ . - of ~e martial re1ationship and the possible impact of an abortion upon a marriage, the State still did not have the constitutional. authority to give the-husband the ability to stop the wife from having an abortion. The Court also said the State may not require the consent or a parent or a person act.inq as parent as a condition of an abortion for an unmarried minor durillg the first 12 weeks ,.. o:f-her pregnan(:y~.: The legal logic· was the same as for a . husband.: the State cannot grant to a third party an arbitrary ' veto of- an abortion during the first 12 weeks. when it lacks ' . thatauthority itself. ;r ~..... .i "· • Page 2 But it le£t open this door: "we emphasize our holding does -not sugge~t every minor, regardless of age or maturity may give effective consent for termination of her pregnancy. 11 5. The court ruled the State cannot bar the use of saline amniocentesis as a ·method_of abortion a£tea the first 12 weeks. Testimony -showed this method to be more safe for ,.~ mother than even continuation of the pre9nancy until:: normal. childbirth. "· 6. The Court said States-may require records for·· health facilities a.~ physicians concerned with abortions. All · such in~o:rmation shall be confidential and used for statistical purposes.~ ..- 7. The ~ Court . rules States may not require doctors per£orminq abortions to try as ha.rd to save a fetus durinq an abortion as weald. be required to preserve the life of a fetus intended to be born alive. SUMMARY OP MASSACHUSETTS CAS~ l. The State cannot control an abortion of a minor durinq the first twelve weeks of a pregnancy any more than it can con­ . ,. .: trol. that of an adul.t.

ABORTION Mrs. Ford feels abortion is certainly justified, but she definitely is not for abortion on demand.

Washington Post - September 6, 1974 {Abortion) Mrs. Ford's concern and the President's concern are essentially that there must be a remedy for persons when abortions become necessary because of serious illness or criminal attack of some kind.

The law also provided that the state political party chairpersons could provide the Secretary of State with a list of individuals whom they consider to be potential presidential nominees for their political party. The Secretary of State was then required to notify each candidate appearing on the lists who in turn was required to file an affidavit indicating his or her political party preference and willingness to have his or her name appear on the ballot. Individuals whose names did not appear on either the Secretary of State’s or a political party list could qualify as a candidate by filing nominating petitions. The petitions were required to be signed by registered electors equal to at least ½ of 1% of the total vote cast in the previous presidential election for the presidential candidate of the political party of the individual.

Smith • Kathryn Jean Lopez Published by: The Human Life Foundation, Inc. New York, New York Vol. XXIX No.3 $7.00 a copy ABOUT THIS ISSUE ... ... the disconnect between hard-wired abortion elites and what an old Apple Computer ad campaign memorably called "the rest of us" is reaching grotesque proportions. A July 2 story in the Washington Times, for example, reported that "fifty-one percent ofwomen surveyed by the Center for the Advancement ofWomen [headed up by former Planned Parenthood president Faye Wattleton] said the gov­ ernment should prohibit abortion or limit it to extreme cases, such as rape, incest, or life-threatening complications" (my emphasis). But that didn't stop the New York Times from branding David Pryor, the pro-life attorney general of Alabama and Bush federal court nominee, an "extremist," whose views "fall far outside the political and legal mainstream" (July 23). To New York Times editors, and Senate Democrats now filibustering Pryor's nomination, "mainstream" means partial-birth abortion. How did it come to this? Long-time contributor (and political indepen­ dent) Mary Meehan reminds us that pro-lifers once held real power in the Demo­ cratic Party; they are not, she suggests, totally without blame for its having become the party of abortion ("Democrats for Life," page 63).

  • Wisconsin Briefs Reference Bureau
    from the Legislative Wisconsin Briefs Reference Bureau Brief 95-10 December 1995 WHO ARE THE CANDIDATES? The 1996 Wisconsin Presidential Preference Primary I. INTRODUCTION On March 19, 1996, Wisconsin voters will express their choices among the various candi­ dates seeking the presidential nomination of their respective national political parties. Wis­ consin has played an influential role in presidential selection over the years, and the 1995 Leg­ islature advanced the date of the spring election, which includes the 1996 presidential preference primary, by three weeks from the first Tuesday in April to the third Tuesday in March in response to similar action by other states. The Wisconsin presidential preference primary is an "open" primary. In other words, Wisconsin does not require voters to identify or declare a party affiliation when casting their ballots. Although in 1984 the Democratic National Committee refused to seat the convention delegates chosen in Wisconsin's open primary and required party caucuses to select the dele­ gates, it reversed its decision in 1988. This reversal was based on enactment of 1985 WISconsin Act 304, which allows political parties complete freedom to select any number of delegates on any basis they choose. The 1996 presidential primary, therefore, is advisory and not binding on the parties. This brief describes the procedure for developing the ballot, and, as has been the practice since 1968, it provides materials to assist the nominating committee in its task of identifying possible presidential candidates. II. THE NOMINATION PROCESS Preparation of the presidential preference primary ballot normally begins with the con­ vening of a presidential preference nominating committee on the last Tuesday in January to determine the candidates whose names will appear on the ballot.
