Barack Obama has stated “the first thing I’d do as president“ would be to sign the Freedom of Choice Act, which would overturn every local, state, and federal abortion law passed in the past 35 years:
”I think it's going to actually help our movement right now. I think it's going to help unite everybody and bring people back to the fold, get people reinvigorated. I feel like the past eight years, everybody thought, since we have a pro-life president, we don't have to do that much. He's looking out for us; don't worry about it. I think it's going to get people back into the fold, being vigilant, watching what's happening in Washington".
