Rand Paul: I Believe in the Sanctity of Life

I strongly believe in the sanctity of life. I believe that life begins at conception and that abortion takes the life of an innocent human being. Under the 14th Amendment, it is the government’s duty to protect life as defined in our Constitution. As a physician, one of the first things we learn is to ‘Do no harm.’  Since the Roe v. Wade decision, over 50 million children have been killed in abortion procedures. As president, I would strongly support legislation restricting federal courts from hearing cases like Roe v. Wade, in an effort to stop harming the lives of the unborn. Our government should not be responsible for funding abortions, and as president, I will attempt to stop the flow of taxpayer dollars to groups who perform or advocate for abortion. I believe we may be able to save millions of lives, and do no harm, by allowing states to pass their own anti-abortion laws. By giving this power to the states, I sincerely believe we would save hundreds of thousands of lives. Reprinted from Rand Paul’s website.
