Abortion: Clinton vetoes late-term method ban
Article Abstract:
Pres Clinton vetoed a bill on Apr 10, 1996, that would have banned partial-birth abortion, a rare procedure that is used in late-term pregnancies. Clinton says he vetoed the measure because it did not provide an exemption for when a woman's health is threatened.
