Why is that a lie?
The article give a great deal of supporting evidence for that statement.
The fallocy of Reagan being pro-abortion has been discredited many, many times here on FR.
Reagan signed a law in 1967, his first year as govenor, allowing “therapeutic” abortion is VERY limited instances, mother’s life/health/etc.
He was assured by his aides Lyn Nofsinger and Ed Meese that the legislation would result in only a handful of abortions each year.
Abortionists exploited this new law, basically performing them on demand.
One year later, Reagan told his staff that he would never have signed the bill had he known what was going to happen.
He said that signing the bill was the ‘greatest mistake’ as governor and would never had done it if he was a more expeienced executive.
