He's a Democrat, so he's just falling into line with the majority opinion within his party. What would be more interesting would be to see a member of the current Republican Congress change to pro-choice on the abortion issue - That would be news!

So- this means the first Civic hatchback in the US in how many years? It's ten years since the Civic Si hatch was discontinued in the US market?

I could see maybe little kids playing around one and a toddler getting locked inside. Stories like that have happened on larger cars, anyway.
