2002 Abortion Referendum

{{See also|Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution Bill, 2002 (Ireland)}}

Cora Sherlock called for a yes vote on the Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution Bill, 2002 (Ireland). The Pro Life Campaign also called for a yes vote.[5]

{{Quote|author=Cora Sherlock|date=11 February 2002|text=By voting Yes we will acknowledge that we owe women a better alternative in their most vulnerable time. We acknowledge the very real difference between an abortion, which sets out to take the life of the baby, and the unintentional death of a baby as a side-effect of medical treatment.

In this way pregnant women will continue to receive the attention that has seen Ireland rank as one of the countries that provides the best medical care for pregnant women. Most importantly, a Yes vote signifies our acceptance of the Government's commitment to find a realistic alternative to abortion, a matter which those who intend to vote No have studiously ignored to date.}}

She voted against the Treaty of Nice in the 2001 referendum.[6]
