Moolenaar: "Today's Ruling Will Save Millions of Lives"

Statement

Today, the Supreme Court ruled that Roe vs. Wade was wrongly decided and that there is no Constitutional right to end the life of an unborn child.

"This is one of the most wonderful days in the history of our country and today's ruling will save millions of lives," said Congressman John Moolenaar. "The Supreme Court's decision upholds the right to life for the most vulnerable people in our society, and each of their lives is a special gift. I have always believed that future generations will look back on permissive abortion as a moral stain on our country's history and today's decision will begin healing the errors of the past. Now, the American people and their elected representatives at all levels of government will have the opportunity to make new laws on this critical issue with the benefit of scientific research that has shown us that precious unborn children have a heartbeat at six weeks and major organs after 15 weeks. I have a 100 percent pro-life voting record and I will continue to fight for the right to life as debates on this issue continue in Congress. There is still important work ahead including increasing support for adoption and pregnancy resource centers that help parents in need. These outstanding organizations across Michigan do important work and I know families are thankful for all they do."
