I'd say this is pretty pro choice:

While running for governor in 2002, Romney stated on a NARAL Pro‐Choice Massachusetts survey: “I respect and will protect a women’s right to choose. This choice is a deeply personal one. Women should be free to choose based on their own beliefs, not mine and not the governments.”

• During an unsuccessful senatorial bid in 1994, Romney said: “I believe that abortion should be safe and legal in this country. I have since the time that my mom took that position when she ran in 1970 as a U.S. Senate candidate. I believe that since Roe v. Wade has been the law for 20 years we should sustain and support it.”

• When asked during his 1994 senatorial campaign about his position on emergency contraception (also known as the “morning‐after” pill), Romney said: “I don’t really understand how it works or when it works but my understanding is that it is an effective morning‐after pill and I think it would be a positive thing to have women have the choice of taking morning‐after pills…. I would favor having it available.”

This is from the New York Times, Romney smears Reagan with a lie as usual, but he buries the claim that he has always secretly been pro-life.

‘’I am pro-life,’’ Mr. Romney said. ‘’I was not always pro-life, but I’m proud I made the same discovery that Ronald Reagan did and Henry Hyde and George Herbert Walker Bush.’’

Later, in Grundy Center, he told voters that his past support of abortion rights was ‘’probably my greatest mistake in the public sphere.’’

‘’I was wrong on that,’’ he told reporters later, adding, ‘’If I could go back and turn back the clock, I would have been pro-life a lot earlier.’’
