Senate majority pro-choi
WASHINGTON (AP) — In its
first ever referendum on Roe vs.
Wade, the Senate went on record
yesterday as saying that the land
mark abortion ruling established
“an important constitutional right”
and should not be overturned.
The nonbinding resolution, sure
to provide fodder for 2000 cam
paign ads, won near-party-line sup
port from the Senate’s Democrats,
and eight Republicans joined them
to ensure passage.
“This is going to be an ab
solutely huge issue next year,” de
clared Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif.
“Now we see the extremists in the
United States Senate.”
Republicans said the vote was
irrelevant to the main legislation up
for debate: a ban on certain late-
term abortions sponsored by Sen.
Rick Santorum, R-Pa. President
Clinton, who has vetoed two earli
er bans, also opposes the bill be
cause it lacks an exception for
women whose health is endan
gered by the pregnancy.
Santorum, whose bill includes
an exception for pregnant women
whose lives are endangered, de
scribed the debate as a moral at
tack on a brutal medical procedure
that involves partially delivering a
live fetus before emptying its skull
and killing it.
“This is not an at
tempt to change or
overturn Roe vs.
Wade.”
—Sen. Rick Santorum
R-Pa.
“This is not an attempt to
change or overturn Roe vs. Wade,”
he said. “At least we should be able
to draw the line that when a child
is in the process of being born, it’s
too late to have an abortion.”

CENTRAL BRIDGE, N.Y. (AP)
— A bus carrying second-graders
to a pumpkin hunt collided with a
dump truck at a dangerous inter
section yesterday, injuring 51
youngsters and adults.
One child was in critical condi
tion, and three youngsters and an
adult were in serious condition yes
terday afternoon.
The bus was carrying 44 chil
dren, four teachers and four adult
chaperones from Albany School
No. 18 on a field trip to the Pump
kin Patch, a popular Halloween
spot 30 miles west of Albany.
“The kids are going to be trau
matized,” Sandra Bowles, whose 7-
year-old granddaughter escaped in
jury in the crash, said. “They are so
young. ”
The empty dump truck, regis
tered to a construction company,
was pulling a trailer when it struck
the back right side of the bus.
The bus spun 180 degrees and
rolled to a rest in grass about 500 feet
from the point of impact. The colli
sion caused the front end of the bus
to dip onto the pavement, knocking
the hood off the vehicle.
The truck was traveling on
Route 7, which has a 55 mph speed
limit. The bus was traveling on
Route 30A, which has a 30 mph
speed limit.
At the intersection of the two
roads, there is a flashing yellow
light for traffic on Route 7 and
flashing red on Route 30A.
Fire Chief Eric Johnson said is
one of the most dangerous inter
sections in the area, although he
said this was the worst accident he
has seen in his 25 years with the
department.
The bus driver, William J. TVea-
cy, 79, and the truck driver, Edward
Cook, 52, were not injured.
