Today, Rep. Jodey C. Arrington (TX-19) issued the following statement on the Supreme Court's decision overturning Roe v. Wade.

"This is a great day for America! By the grace of God and the tireless efforts of pro-life champions, we have restored constitutional integrity to our Republic and returned the power back to states and We the People," said Rep. Arrington.

"Ever since the Supreme Court erred in Roe v. Wade, America has failed to protect EVERY citizen's inherent right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

"Today's SCOTUS decision upholds the Constitution's explicit empowerment of citizens of every state to regulate or abolish abortion."

"The prayers of millions of God-fearing Americans have been answered, and the right to life -- which is not just a fundamental freedom, but a sacred gift from Almighty God -- has been restored for the next generation of Americans."
