From Folio: "Abortion: A matter of life and death. The issue of abortion has touched national nerves and goes well beyond an individual woman's decision whether or not to terminate a pregnancy. It has expanded to include euthanasia, the family as an institution, sexuality, contraception, religious freedom, and who in our society should be granted the rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution.
