Trump’s Newest Adviser Should Bring a Smile to Your Face
Friday, the pro-life advocacy group Susan B. Anthony List made public a letter it received from Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump that names the organization’s president, Marjorie Dannenfelser, as national chairwoman of his campaign’s pro-life coalition.
Additionally, the letter includes four pro-life policy commitments. These are:
- Nominating pro-life justices to the U.S. Supreme Court.
- Signing into law the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which would end painful late-term abortions nationwide.
- Defunding Planned Parenthood as long as they continue to perform abortions, and re-allocating their funding to community health centers that provide comprehensive health care for women.
- Making the Hyde Amendment permanent law to protect taxpayers from having to pay for abortions.
“As we head into the final stretch of the campaign, [it] is essential to ensure that pro-life voters know where I stand, and also know where my opponent, Hillary Clinton, stands,” the letter states. “Hillary Clinton not only supports abortion on-demand for any reason, but she’d take it a step further: she wants to force the taxpayers to pay for abortions by repealing the bi-partisan Hyde Amendment.
“Hillary Clinton also supports abortion until an hour before birth. And she will only appoint Supreme Court justices who share this view. She doesn’t even try to hide her extremism. When asked on Meet the Press when unborn children have constitutional rights, Clinton bluntly responded, ‘The unborn person doesn’t have constitutional rights.’
“She is so committed to this view that she proclaimed in a speech that ‘religious beliefs … have to be changed’ in order to advance her abortion agenda. Hillary Clinton’s unwavering commitment to advancing taxpayer-funded abortion on-demand stands in stark contrast to the commitments I’ve made to advance the rights of unborn children and their mothers when elected president.”
