Political Quotes

“Fifty-three years ago, the U.S. Supreme Court issued one of the most horrendous and devastating rulings in its nearly 237-year-old history. On this solemn anniversary, we pause to remember the unborn babies who had their lives unjustly stolen under the evils of the Roe v. Wade decision. This treacherous ruling paved the way for the murder of more than 63 million unborn children. These precious souls were denied their first and most fundamental right: the right to life. Our Declaration of Independence rightly proclaims that we are endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men. That is right, the responsibility of government is to secure these rights, to preserve the right to life. Our God-given right to life should be universally recognized as a blessing, not flagrantly disregarded in an attempt to justify the murder of innocent, unborn children. While our Nation will never know the friends, colleagues, and leaders lost to the evils of abortion, it is our solemn obligation to honor and mourn these unborn lives. That is why, both this Congress and last Congress, I have proudly led a resolution to recognize today, January 22, as the day of tears.”
