STATEHOUSE (Aug. 2, 2022) — "Since the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision overruling Roe v. Wade, now each state has the obligation to decide whether abortion should be legal within their borders."
"I know this is a deeply personal issue for most, as it should be. While there were a few statements made regarding the life of a baby on the Senate Floor, I believe this should be a central part of the debate."
"Based on data, the preponderance of Senate District 27 supports a pro-life stance and I have long valued the sanctity of life and been a strong supporter of pro-life measures. The current version of Senate Bill 1 passed out of the Senate with my support."
"The Indiana House of Representatives now will take on the responsibility to approve or change the language.”
