Issue Position: Abortion

Issue Position

The Declaration of Independence declares "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." The first right that they mentioned was our right to life. This is our most basic and fundamental right. Unfortunately there is an entire class of citizens that are being denied this right: unborn children. Abortion is a direct violation of this fundamental right and is unconstitutional. As a State Representative I will fight to protect the lives of the unborn by ensuring that no taxpayer money goes to organizations that perform abortions. Also I will support a Life at Conception Bill that declares that all human life begins at conception ensuring the rights of the unborn under the 14th Amendment which states "nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law".
