It has been said that none are so blind as those who will not see, and so I rise today on behalf of the unborn babies who can't stand up for themselves. Many of my colleagues have already described the horrifying videos that shock the conscience and have sparked several congressional investigations. No matter what party you belong to, we should all agree that taxpayer dollars should not be used for harvesting baby parts for profit. The debate today is about more than these barbaric practices. It is about the very character of our Nation. Will we turn a blind eye to this callous disregard for human life? Is this the country we want to be? Two weeks ago today, my newest granddaughter, Naomi Gail, was born after an emergency C-section from a doctor who understood the need for life for both the mother and the child. Holding her in my arms was a vivid reminder that all life is sacred, and every child deserves dignity, respect, and a chance for a full life. America was founded on the values of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Madam Speaker, it all begins with life.
