KEITH J. ROTHFUS: “Our Declaration of Independence states that everyone is endowed by our creator with an unalienable right to life.…”

Our Declaration of Independence states that everyone is endowed by our creator with an unalienable right to life. Recognition of God-given rights is part of who we are. Indeed, who could forget President Kennedy's words more than 50 years ago when he said: Our rights do not come from the generosity of the State but from the hand of God. This legislation expands protections for the right to life. It recognizes that a class of children, unborn babies older than 20 weeks who feel the pain of abortion, should be protected. We must stand in solidarity with these vulnerable children and affirm: we will protect you. I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 36.
