The advocates of abortion on demand falsely assume two things: that women must suffer if the lives of unborn children are legally protected; and that women can only attain equality by having the legal option of destroying their innocent offspring in the womb.
From Robert Casey
The abortion license has not brought freedom and security to women. Rather, it has ushered in a new era of irresponsibility toward women and children, one that now begins before birth.
Abortion is defended today as a means of ensuring the equality and independence of women, and as a solution to the problems of single parenting, child abuse, and the feminization of poverty.
Whose rights will we acknowledge? Whose human dignity will we respect? For whose well-being will we, as a people, assume responsibility?
Our moral, religious, and political traditions are united in their respect for the dignity of human life.
Abortion is a question of choice.
I am fairly certain that my abortion position hurt me, because in a Democratic primary, where turnout is relatively low, liberal voters turn out in disproportionately large numbers and thus exercise a disproportionate influence on the outcome.
Any man who has ever tried to use political power for the common good has felt an awful sense of powerlessness.
A vast abortion industry, generating some half a billion dollars annually, sprang into existence in the wake of Roe and Doe.
To establish justice and to promote the general welfare, America does not need the abortion license.
