Personalizing the equal marriage message

Article Abstract:

A resolution passed at the 2004 National Conference called for National Organization for Women (NOW) to implement its equal marriage educational campaign. The campaign would implement leadership speaker training sessions on the issue of marriage equality, develop a list of speakers to encourage debate and education on this issue within NOW and outside of NOW, and develop products and actions kits for the NOW leadership and grassroots activists.

War against reproductive rights surges through states

Article Abstract:

South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds signed a law that bans all abortions with only unusually narrow exception to prevent the death of the pregnant woman, which presumably requires that death be imminent and is scheduled to go into effect on July 1, 2006. Because the law violates a woman's right to privacy, as established in Roe v. Wade, South Dakota advocates are expected to challenge the ban in court before it takes effect.
