Linda Lingle on Abortion

Republican Governor (HI)

Oppose partial-birth abortion; support parental notification

I support a woman's right to choose. However, I oppose partial-birth abortions. I also support requiring parental notification. In addition, I believe we must work to ensure there are no more unwanted children - through education, prevention, and adoption.
