Last week marked the 47th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Our Nation's Founders enshrined in the Declaration of Independence that all humans are ``endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.'' Since that fateful Roe v. Wade decision, we have denied the first of those basic rights, the right to life, to more than 60 million unborn children. I rise today in opposition to this atrocity, and I rise in support of the brave individuals who flooded the National Mall this past Friday to take part in the annual March for Life. As long as abortion exists in our country, a dark cloud will hang over us, but the March for Life makes me hopeful that this cloud will not hang over us forever. I have great hope that life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness will extend to all Americans born and those yet to be born. ____________________
