NARAL Pro-Choice America Invites Anti-Choice Groups to Join Campaign
National Pro-Choice Groups Seek to Reduce Unintended Pregancies
NARAL Pro-Choice America has started a campaign to try to work with the anti-choice movement towards a similar goal: fewer abortions. NARAL says, "What better way to end the debate

The group is circulating a petition to organizations in the anti-choice movement, asking them to join a new campaign to reduce the need for abortion.
