Reject President Bush's Anti-Choice Nominee, Robert Conrad
Target: U.S. SenateSponsored by: NARAL Pro-Choice America
Do you remember Richard Honaker? He was President Bush's pick for a lifetime appointment to a federal district court who tried to outlaw abortion three times in Wyoming. Now, Bush is at it again! This time, he and his allies in the Senate are pushing for a new anti-choice nominee as judge on the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals: Robert Conrad. Robert Conrad has called Planned Parenthood a "radical, pro-abortion fringe group" that "promotes a radical abortion agenda." What's more, from 1983 to 1986, Conrad served on the board of directors for a so-called "crisis pregnancy center" that provided medically inaccurate information about pregnancy, contraception and abortion. Clearly, he isn't fair-minded – and he doesn't deserves a lifetime appointment as a federal judge! Urge your senators to reject the nomination of Robert Conrad today.

If planning parent hood is radical, then they really must see the inside of an abortion clinic. Birth control is not abortion, it is the introduction of hormones or education of proper ways to prevent parent hood. This must end, we will be in a true crisis if the access is denied the abortion rates will probably double, and in the long run there will be more encouragement and use of the one thing that is trying to be ended. I am not one who agrees with abortion in every situation but I very well agree in prevention of pregnancy till a good time.

Dear Senator [Name], As your constituent, I urge you to reject Robert Conrad, President Bush's nominee to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. Conrad has a clear anti-choice record. In 1988, Conrad wrote an op-ed piece for The Charlotte Observer in which he labeled Planned Parenthood a "radical, pro-abortion fringe group" that "promotes a radical abortion agenda." From 1983 to 1986, Conrad served on the board of directors for the Charlottesville Pregnancy Center, an organization seemingly modeled as a so-called "crisis pregnancy center" (CPC). Many CPCs intentionally misinform and mislead women who are seeking pregnancy-related assistance by providing medically inaccurate information about pregnancy, contraception, or abortion. In fact, the Charlottesville Pregnancy Center's website includes anti-choice propaganda like, "Remember that abortion doesn't erase a mistake - it only adds new ones. I urge you to carefully review Conrad's record and oppose this nomination should it reach the Senate floor for a vote.
