Hillary Clinton on Abortion-- Transcript Made Available


MEDIA ADVISORY, Jan. 23 /Christian Newswire/ -- Today, a full transcript was made available of Hillary Clinton's July 17, 2007 speech before the Planned Parenthood Action Fund (PPAF).

"Hillary Clinton's speech before the Planned Parenthood Action Fund revealed just how closely she walks with Planned Parenthood, NARAL, NOW and all other groups seeking continuing and unlimited access to abortion on demand," stated Laura Echevarria, who transcribed the speech.

Ms. Echevarria was a spokesperson and a former director of Media Relations for the National Right to Life Committee from 1997 to 2004. She is currently a writer focusing on politics and abortion and often needs research materials such as speeches. She transcribed the speech after discovering that only video of the speech was available at a Planned Parenthood website.

Ms. Echevarria is currently completing the transcript of Barack Obama's speech before PPAF that also took place on July 17th.

"I was amazed that neither Mrs. Clinton's nor Mr. Obama's websites linked to the videos or posted text of the speeches," stated Ms. Echevarria.
