The Christian Coalition says these steps will protect innocent human life and ensure that tax dollars are not used to promote abortion. People opposed to this proposal say that it is wrong to eliminate all funding for family planning services when we face the growing problems of teen pregnancy and out-of-wedlock births. They also say that the personal decision on abortion should be made by the woman and her doctor -- not the federal government - especially in cases of rape or incest.

It also would significantly reduce federal funding for education, while transferring some of the funds to local school districts. The Christian Coalition says that this will strength parental involvement and local control of the schools. People opposed to this proposal say that we need real standards in our public schools, so that American kids can compete in the global economy when they grow up. They also say that it is wrong to reduce support for education and abolish the Dept. of Education at a time when we need to strength our public schools. Total favor: 40%/33% 32% 36% 46%/37% 36%/29% Total oppose: 52%/61% 65% 44% 47%/57% 57%/68% Q.

The next Contract proposal deals with the issue of pornography on the computer Internet. The Christian Coalition says we need a new law making it a federal crime to distribute any pornography on the Internet that could be viewed by children. People who oppose this approach say there are already tough criminal laws against the distribution of obscene materials. They say this new law goes too far in letting the federal government interfere with parents' rights and in imposing censorship, which is why even many conservatives oppose it. Total Favor 50%/64% 61% 78% 55%/72% 48%/56% Total Oppose 43%/32% 35% 22% 40%/24% 46%/40% Q. Another Contract proposal would end all federal support for the arts, such as the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities, and also eliminate federal funding for public television. The Christian Coalition says the government now funds controversial and obscene artworks, and that the private sector -- not the federal government -- should fund the arts. People opposed to this proposal say that public funding for local arts programs has brought art to many communities for the first time, and that public television has provided some of the best nonviolent, educational programming for children on television -- like Sesame Street. They say that if we really want to help families and teach children good values, we should strengthen public television, not weaken it.
