[ Video – 3:47 ] [ Excerpts ]
“My focus today and my purpose in filing this bill[ seePress Releasedated January 27, 2017 ]is very simple. This legislation directly underscores and recognizes those unalienable rights endowed by the Creator:the right to life, the right to liberty, and the right to the pursuit of happiness, to a baby girl and a baby boy that have yet to be born.”
“Please allow me to just read a couple of short portions of the bill, that reflects the simple purpose of my introduction of this bill, to uphold the liberty of young girls and boys. Section [ 1-1-320 ], Part (B), says,‘The General Assembly acknowledges that all persons are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.’In[ Part ](C), ‘The General Assembly acknowledges that personhood is God-given,as all men are created in the image of God.’ “
“And then in the next section [ Section 1-1-330 ],[ Part ](B) again, ‘The rights guaranteed by Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution of this State, that no person shall be deprived of life without due process of law nor denied the equal protection of the laws, vest at fertilization for each born and preborn human being.’ “
“Thanks again for holding this hearing, and taking my testimony. I appreciate your hard work, and I believe it is themost important subject of all.” ______
