Ruling Draws Lawmakers Toward Political Minefield
Washington Post
The Supreme Court ruling yesterday resurrects the politically charged issue of reproductive rights just in time for the 2008 campaign season, but it may not be a fight the Democrats want. All the 2008 Democratic presidential candidates, along with many congressional Democrats, issued statements opposing the court's 5 to 4 ruling upholding a ban on a type of abortion, and GOP candidates uniformly applauded the decision.

Bill to Legalize Abortion Set to Pass in Mexico City
The New York Times
MEXICO CITY, March 30 — Dominated by liberals, Mexico City’s legislature is expected to legalize abortion in a few weeks. The bill would make this city one of the largest entities in Latin America to break with a long tradition of women resorting to illegal clinics and midwives to end unwanted pregnancies. But the measure has stirred a vicious debate and shaken this heavily Roman Catholic country to its roots. In recent days, the bill has dominated conversations from family dinner tables to the president’s office.
