I thought that the Roe v. Wade decision in 1973, when I was in 10th grade, meant that abortion was a legal option. Was I ever wrong!

Abortion should be safe, legal and affordable for every woman in this country. Period, end of story. No apologies, no excuses needed. It is the most intensely personal decision a woman can ever make. It should be her own decision, no one else's.

I was raised as a Catholic and I am a mother. And I am disgusted that we are still debating this issue in 2013.
