No public funding; no partial birth

Abortions should be legal when the life of the woman is endangered.
Prohibit the dilation and extraction procedure, also known as "partial-birth" abortion.
Prohibit public funding of abortions and of organizations that advocate or perform abortions.
Scott says, "Support parental notification."
