Legislative Battle Brewing

Of course, the Democrats are in the driver's now. According to the Hill, President Bush "sent stern letters to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) [in May 2007] promising to veto 'any legislation that weakens current Federal policies and laws on abortion.'”
