When I was a State Senator, I authored
the legislation that was eventually
signed into law providing for a 24-hour
waiting period for abortions in the
state of Mississippi. I'm pleased that we
have built on that progress at the
federal level. We have passed legislation
prohibiting partial-birth abortion. I'm
glad that that is now the law of the
land and I'm the author right now of
legislation providing that no taxpayer
funding can be used to fund abortions of
any kind so I'm proud of my pro-life
work. We have a lot more work to be done
but I've always consistently been a
pro-life legislator.
