COMMENT IS RESPONSE TO RESOLUTION ES-07

Regarding the resolution ES-07 about abortion, I think the delegates from the United States should reconsider their position. Their call for removing support for abortions is one that I personally agree with, but it is one that is not in line with the national policy of the country they represent. The U.S. has repeatedly stood up for abortion, beginning with Roe v. Wade in 1973. While a noble idea, the United States would never support, much less sponsor, this resolution.
