Today we mark one of the most tragic, misguided Supreme Court cases in our nation’s history, Roe v. Wade. Since 1973, more than 50 million babies have been denied the right to life. If government has any legitimate function at all, it is to protect the most innocent among us. As an obstetrician and gynecologist, I’ve delivered close to 5,000 babies and I strongly support the sanctity of life. Using technology like the 3-D ultrasound has given us windows to the womb that show unborn children as living, breathing, feeling human beings. I have looked through that window with my own eyes. I have seen human development occur from the earliest stages of a fetus all the way through birth, which strengthens my conviction in the right to life. Life is a precious miracle from God that begins at conception. It’s our responsibility and privilege as legislators to protect those who do not have a voice. I will always fight for the right to life because it is my conviction that we are all unique creations of a God who knows us and loves us before we are even conceived.
