Pro-Life movement changes tactics

Since Roe v. Wade was decided 35 years ago, a woman’s right to choose an abortion has been Issue Number One in the so-called "culture wars." But it’s still the law. The next Supreme Court vacancies are likely to be filled by a President who’s pro-choice. Ballot initiatives to limit abortion failed this month in South Dakota, Colorado and California.

The pro-life movement won’t go away, but it’s changing its tactics. "To the Point" examines the search for common ground and the new issue of same-sex marriage.

Guests:
– Cynthia Gorney: Professor of Journalism, University of California at Berkeley
– Nicholas Cafardi: Professor of Law, Duquesne University
– Tom Minnery: Vice President of Public Policy, Focus on the Family
– Walter Dellinger: former Assistant Attorney General and Solicitor General

Hosted by award-winning journalist Warren Olney, "To the Point" presents informative and thought-provoking discussion of major news stories — front-page issues that attract a savvy and serious news audience.
