Where the candidates stand




        AL GORE:

        His words: “And let there be no doubt. I will protect and defend a woman's right to choose. The last thing this country needs is a Supreme Court that overturns Roe versus Wade.”

        His stance: There is no challenge more fundamental than protecting women's reproductive rights.

        He will fight to guarantee women the right to choose and make abortion safe, legal and rare while making significant investments in family planning and education.

        Endorsed by: National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League

        GEORGE W. BUSH:

        His words: “I know good people disagree on this issue but surely we can agree on ways to value life by promoting adoption and parental notification, and when Congress sends me a bill against partial-birth abortion, I will sign it into law.”

        His stance: He is against abortion except in cases of rape and incest and in cases in which the mother's life is threatened.

        He wants to set the goal that all children should be welcomed in life and protected by law.

        He supports parental notification, banning use of taxpayer funds for abortion and banning partial-birth abortion. He wants to make permanent the $5,000 adoption tax credit.

        Endorsed by: National Right to Life.
