Sources: Obama may quickly reverse abortion policy - CNN.com
This is a very interesting story about Obama's decision to reverse the "Mexico City Policy" set by Reagan in the 1980s. If you remember, this is the policy that prevents any organizations that are receiving funds from the US to offer or even discuss abortion.
As with most women's health, this is a contentious issue that is highly politicized. For example, this policy was initiated by Reagan, reversed by Clinton, and then reinstated by Bush.
It will be very interesting to see what the reaction will be.
Here's an interesting statement here "Obama's second full day as president falls on the 36th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion in the United States."
