King

Continued from preceding page

Rabbi Nelson's bride and
groom beneath the marriage
canopy. The caption on the
front page said that on such
a sad day in the world,
maybe this wedding sym-
bolized that love could still
change the world.
"When I come to this day, I
always come away thinking
there is always hope for this
world," said Rabbi Nelson.
"I always think that this is a
meaningful celebration, and
I think it's important to be
there."

Judge Cooper said com-
memorating Dr. King means
people must continue to try
to build bridges.
"The outreach organiza-
tions are doing a great job,"
he said. "There's a whole list
of folks out there who are
making an effort to bring
people together. What we
have to do as individuals is
to continue to try to educate
our children and ourselves to
the need to respect other
people, and get along with
one another." ❑

Jewish Women's Groups
Concerned Over Case

Washington (JTA) — Jew-
ish women's groups are hop-
ing the U.S. Supreme Court
will declare unconstitutional
a Pennsylvania law that
places stringent regulations
on abortion.
At the same time, there is
fear that the court could use
a legal challenge to the law
to overturn Roe vs. Wade, its
1973 decision establishing a
constitutional right to an
abortion.
But in deciding on the eve
of the 19th anniversary of
the landmark decision, to
hear the case, Planned
Parenthood vs. Casey, in
late March or early April,
the court indicated it will
not deal with whether Roe vs.
Wade is still the law of
the land.
Instead, the court will
limit itself to ruling on the
sections of the law found
constitutional last year by
the U.S. Court of Appeals for
the 3rd Circuit in
Philadelphia.
These include re-
quirements that a woman
notify her husband if she
plans an abortion, that there
be a 24-hour waiting period
and that a woman planning
an abortion be shown mate-
rial on alternatives, as well
as pictures of aborted
fetuses.
While expressing hope
that the Supreme Court will
overturn the appeals court
ruling, Joan Bronk, presi-
dent of the National Council
of Jewish Women, urged all
women to become aware of
the importance of the case
for preserving their repro-
ductive rights.
"We believe this case has
the potential to overturn the
legality of abortion for all
women in the United
States," Ms. Bronk said.
Ann Lewis, chair of the
American Jewish Congress

Commission for Women's
Equality, said the case
"refocuses attention on the
crucial issue of the extent to
which women's reproductive
choices can be regulated by
the government."
"The American Jewish
Congress strongly believes
that women have the moral
capacity to make this most
personal decision of whether
to terminate a pregnancy,"
Ms. Lewis said.
Harriet Horwitz, president
of B'nai B'rith Women, said
that because of the composi-
tion of the court, "we are
gravely concerned that Roe
vs. Wade may be eroded."
Only two supporters of Roe
vs. Wade are still on the
court, Justices Harry
Blackmun and John Paul
Stevens. Four members of
the court are known to be
ready to overturn the land-
mark ruling.
This could leave the deci-
sion with Justice Sandra
Day O'Connor and the
court's two newest members,
Justices David Souter and
Clarence Thomas. Any one
of them could supply the
deciding fifth vote to over-
turn Roe vs. Wade.
Ms. Bronk, of the National
Council of Jewish Women,
said most supporters of abor-
tion would like a decision
that would decide once and
for all whether a woman's
right to abortion is guar-
anteed by the Constitution.
This is what Planned
Parenthood was seeking
when it brought the case to
the Supreme Court.
It is not yet clear what
stance Orthodox Jewish
groups will take in the case.
Neither the Union of Or-
thodox Jewish Congrega-
tions of America nor
Agudath Israel of America is
ready to announce a posi-
tion.
