last Sunday, when asked about the March For Women's Lives, Karen Hughes said, and I quote, ``The fundamental difference between us and the terror network we fight is that we value every life.'' On behalf of the millions of Americans who are pro-choice, I am asking, along with nine Members of Congress, that the Bush administration clarify this statement. Surely they cannot be equating choice with terrorism, but it sounds like that to me. This is a dangerous and ugly pattern. If people do not agree, call them terrorists. Mr. Speaker, I will be placing in the Record the letter from nine Members of Congress to President Bush and the article that appeared today in The Washington Post.
