'''Homosexual activists and abortion''' refers to the strategic relationships and like-minded political agendas of LGBT and pro-abortion activists. They push two major platforms, same-sex marriage and abortion, through a common theme of 'rights'. These leftwing organizations have the full support of the Democratic party. Even though LGBT hasn't a need to stand for abortion since same-sex couples cannot copulate, abortion supporters do work together since they perceive [[Catholic]]s and [[Republican]]s as the enemy of both their agendas. Matt Foreman, exuctive director of the [[National Gay & Lesbian Taskforce]] says, '''"Reproductive freedom and gay rights are inextricably intertwined,"''' in addition, "Do we support a woman’s right to choose? Damn right. Always have. Always will. No apologies. No regrets." <ref>[http://www.thetaskforce.org/blog/20070514-matt-foreman-damn-right-we-support-a-womans-right-to-choose Damn right we support a woman’s right to choose]National Gay & Lesbian Taskforce, May 14, 2007</ref> The LGBT community fears abortion laws because they negatively "threaten to take away our fundamental equality," and anti-abortion ballot measures would harm their ally. <ref>[http://www.sfbaytimes.com/index.php?article_id=4249&sec=article Just Say No] San Francisco Bay Times, November 3, 2005</ref>
