an excellent idea

that the conservatives will undoubtedly find something wrong with:

from The Talent Show:

We will never resolve our differences on this basic question. But we should agree on an equally fundamental point: America would be a better country if no woman ever faced the difficult choices posed by an unintended pregnancy. What better way to end the debate over abortion rights than by eliminating the reasons women seek abortion?
The time has come to join together in a new campaign to reduce the number of abortions.
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid – who disagrees with us on the issue of abortion – has offered a commonsense bill called the Prevention First Act which would help reduce unintended pregnancies through better access to birth control. This landmark legislation represents a serious first step in addressing the problem, and I hope you’ll join pro‐choice Americans and me in offering your support.

Wouldn't it be amazing to work together to accomplish something good? Not holding my breath, but we'll see!
