2020 DE Senatorial race: on Abortion


Lauren Witzke: Life begins at conception; constitutional change necessary

Witzke is un-apologetically pro-life. She believes that life begins at conception,. no matter what the circumstance. She will pursue a constitutional amendment to protect the unborn. Once our nation stops killing 1 million unborn babies a year, we'll no longer need to bring in 1 million legal immigrants a year. Witzke will fund faith-based Crisis Pregnancy centers and adoption programs. End the stigma associated with adoption. Abortion should be stigmatized, not adoption.

Lauren Witzke: Abortion is extermination of minorities

Facebook comments she posted hours after the death last month of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She said the justice's "obsession with abortion overtly singled out blacks and minorities for extermination," accompanying the post with a photograph of dancing Black children.
