Mr. Speaker, I rise today to reaffirm my unwavering commitment to protecting life and supporting both mothers and babies. Every life is precious, and it is our responsibility to defend the most vulnerable among us. As a mother, a doctor, and a Member of Congress, I have always been dedicated to ensuring that children have the opportunity to grow, thrive, and fulfill their potential. I am proud to share that I earned an A+ on the Susan B. Anthony Pro- Life America National Pro-Life Scorecard for the 118th Congress. This score reflects my consistent pro-life voting record, cosponsorship, and efforts to protect the sanctity of life. This week, people from all around the country are coming to Washington, D.C., to celebrate life and advocate for those who cannot speak for themselves. In addition to defending life, we must ensure that mothers have the support and resources they need to make the best choices for themselves and their children. Mr. Speaker, today I wish a happy 15th birthday to my best buddy and nephew, Andrew Martino. I hope he has a wonderful day. ____________________
