Reject President Bush's Anti-Choice Nominee, Robert Conrad

Target: U.S. Senate
Sponsored 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.

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."

[Your comment here]

I urge you to carefully review Conrad's record and oppose this nomination should it reach the Senate floor for a vote.

Sincerely,
[Your name]
[Your address]

I don't personally agree with abortion in cases where it is used as a form of birth control but that is a personal choice. I would never, ever tell someone else that they should or should not have this procedure done because I am a woman and I believe in CHOICE for what I do with my body. It is not the right of the government to tell anyone, either. We live in a society where freedom, independance, and the pursuit of happiness are given to us from the moment we are born. That is what it means to be an American. And with all of our other rights being stomped on because "the constitution is just a piece of paper", I think it's high time we all got together and made an effort to hold onto what rights we can. Please, please don't vote for this man.

I am against instating a judge who is biased and unfair to women's rights. I have always used the services of Planned Parenthood for all of my OBGYN needs. I appreciate the genuine care I have received in their clinics.
