Rep. Duncan Celebrates the Reversal of Roe v. Wade

Press Release

Congressman Jeff Duncan issued the following statement to celebrate the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade and encourage the pro-life fight to continue as the question of abortion returns to the states.

"The Supreme Court's decision to reverse Roe v. Wade is an answered prayer for the nation. Roe was an "egregiously wrongly decided' decision that has tragically led to the death of over 60 million children in the womb since 1973," said Congressman Jeff Duncan. "Overturning Roe is one of the most significant civil rights victories in our nation's history and will result in countless lives being saved."

"The very purpose of government is to protect our God-given natural rights, and the most fundamental of these rights is the right to life," said Congressman Jeff Duncan. "With Roe being overturned, states have new opportunities to expand protections for the unborn. I encourage every state legislature, especially in South Carolina, to immediately move forward with pro-life legislation that will protect all children in the womb."

"At the same time, we must be ever vigilant against attempts by Democrats to undermine this victory by enacting radical federal legislation that would legalize abortion to the point of birth and allow unborn children to be killed based on sex or disability. I will continue to fight for the rights of the unborn, and protect the sanctity of life."
