Political Quotes

“Thank you very much to the junior Senator from Indiana. We really appreciate his efforts on these bills as well. Again, I think all of us would agree that these are commonsense pieces of legislation, and we would love to see some movement coming from our friends on the left. We have had a wonderful colloquy this evening. Of course, again, thanks to the Senator from Montana, Mr. Daines, for leading this colloquy and for sharing his time with us this evening as we have talked about some of these measures. To the junior Senator from the great State of Nebraska, as well, Mr. Sasse, thank you so much for authoring the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Act. And thanks to Senator Lindsey Graham, of course, for authoring his pain-capable bill. Again, we have talked this evening about those two bills that really hit close to home. I did happen to sit through the Judiciary Committee hearing that was led by Senator Sasse a couple of weeks ago, where we did talk about the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Act. It was true that so many of our friends across the aisle were deflecting on the legislation. They were talking about a woman's right to choose. They were talking about being pro-choice and supporting abortion. The bottom line is, this is not a bill that has anything to do with those topics. This is about saving babies who are born alive after a botched abortion attempt. So I think we have to make that very clear as we move through tomorrow's proceedings.…”
