Dear Dr. Lederberg:

Thank you for your letter of March 3, 1970.

I am not the only Member of Congress who has
discussed the need for abortion repeal, but I am one
of the very few who has spoken about it.

Representative Spark Matsunaga of Hawaii and
Senator Robert Packwood of Oregon have both introduced
abortion repeal bills. I am hopeful that other
Legislators will begin to speak out and take a stand.

Cordially,
ye
a
SHIRLEY CHISHOLM, M. C.
