Palin Supports Abortion Consent Initiative Monday, May 4, 2009 4:55 PM
ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Gov. Sarah Palin says she'll sign a petition aimed at letting Alaska voters decide whether girls under 18 should be required to notify their parents before getting abortions.
Sponsors of the ballot initiative applied last week to start gathering signatures. The measure would prohibit doctors from performing abortions for girls under 18 without notice or consent from at least one parent.
Palin backed a parental consent measure introduced in the Legislature this year, but the measure stalled. Supporters hope to get the consent measure on the ballot next year.
A Planned Parenthood official in Alaska, Clover Simon, says her organization opposes parental consent as potentially dangerous for teens looking to avoid facing their parents.
