Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- A leading pro-life group that works with state legislators to pass laws that reduce abortions is reminding voters that presidential candidate Barack Obama wants all of those laws overturned. Americans United for Life says Obama's position will increase abortions after they've dropped to historic lows.
The organization is releasing an open letter to newspapers across the battleground state of Ohio questioning why Obama favors a Congressional bill, the so-called Freedom of Choice Act, that would overturn every limit on abortion.
"Many people still don't even know about this radical bill and Obama has promised Planned Parenthood it would be his first priority in the White House," AUL president Charmaine Yoest told LifeNews.com on Tuesday.

"That's why I'm asking you to do just one thing before November 4th -- to make a pledge to study all the candidates and to vote for those will support the nomination and confirmation of Supreme Court judges who value life," McCorvey adds.
McCorvey says the vote is "not about party or politics but about something far more important -- that you cast your vote to preserve life from natural conception to natural death."
