Bev Perdue on Abortion

North Carolina Governor

Guarantee women access to birth control & Planned Parenthood

President Obama has fought to guarantee that women have access to quality, affordable health care, including making sure that insurance plans cover birth control with no out-of-pocket cost. And unlike Mitt Romney, President Obama is standing up for Planned Parenthood. Source: 2012 Democratic National Convention speech , Sep 4, 2012

Legal abortion in first trimester of pregnancy

Abortions should be legally available when the procedure is completed within the first trimester of pregnancy.
Abortions should be legal only when the pregnancy resulted from incest, rape, or when the life of the woman is endangered.
