I wonder what the wingnuts will think when they discover this...
In 1987 Miers chaired the advisory committee of "Girls Inc. of Dallas". Girls Inc. of Dallas is an affiliate of the national Girls Inc. organization.
What does Girls Inc. have to say about reproductive freedom and abortion rights?
...
Reproductive Freedom
Girls Incorporated affirms that girls and young women should make responsible decisions about sexuality, pregnancy and parenthood.
We recognize the right of all women to choose whether, when, and under what circumstances to bear children. Reproductive freedom and responsibility are essential to other rights and opportunities, including pursuit of education, employment, financial security and a stable and fulfilling family life. Restrictions of reproductive choice are especially burdensome for young women and poor women. Girls Incorporated supports a woman's freedom of choice, a constitutional right established by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973 in Roe vs. Wade.
