Title: First Lady meets the press.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-45991 FIRST LADY MEETS THE PRESS WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Mrs. Betty Ford fields questions during her first full-scale press conference at the White House. On one major U.S. issue -- abortion -- Mrs. Ford made it plain she is “definitely closer” to the views of Vice President-designate Nelson Rockefeller, former New York governor, than to those of Sen. James Buckley (C-R) of New York. Mr. Rockefeller, as governor of New York vetoed a bill in 1972 which would have repealed the state’s liberal abortion law. Sen. Buckley, meanwhile, has proposed a Constitutional amendment in Congress which would overturn the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1973 liberal ruling on abortion. The First Lady’s affinity with the views of Mr. Rockefeller, who has been strongly criticized by anti-abortion forces, brought comparisons with the views of President Ford. In October 1973, while still Republican leader in the House of Representatives, he said he opposed abortion on demand and had co-sponsored a bill restoring to the states the power to prohibit or regulate abortions. Mrs. Ford also said she intends to be an active First Lady, with interests centering on the arts and of behalf of underprivileged and retarded children. She said she hopes to campaign for ratification of the equal rights amendment for women, which now lacks the approval of five states before it can become law.
