“Americans must continue to boldly display to the world our values, which liberate and do not oppress. Protecting all human life is a foundational American value that must be asserted. Our nation will be faced with another opportunity to preserve human life in the months ahead.  Soon, the U.S. Supreme Court will review a Mississippi law that prohibits abortion after 15 weeks in a pregnancy. This concept flies in the face of the tragic precedent established in Roe […]
