                     RECOGNIZING THE MARCH FOR LIFE

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. JOHN BOOZMAN

                              of arkansas

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, January 26, 2005

  Mr. BOOZMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the thousands of 
people in Arkansas and across the Nation who gathered this week to 
protest the 1973 Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade.
  Like those who assembled, I believe strongly in the sanctity of human 
life. 32 years ago, the Supreme Court decided that a woman could end a 
life by terminating her pregnancy for any reason, including health, 
gender selection or because it was an unplanned or unwanted pregnancy. 
As a result, thousands of lives have been ended out of convenience 
mislabeled as a woman's right to choose.
  Mr. Speaker, as we remember this powerful Supreme Court decision this 
week, I ask that we also remember that we have a responsibility to 
protect the precious lives of the unborn children to come.
