2020 KS Senatorial race: on Abortion


Roger Marshall: Believes life begins at conception and should be protected

He knows a child is a living creation of God from the moment of conception. In Congress, Dr. Marshall co-sponsored bills that would: eliminate all taxpayer funding for abortions, defund Planned Parenthood, and make any abortion after 20 weeks illegal nationwide. Dr. Marshall is also a proud cosponsor of "The Heartbeat Bill," and believes that life begins at conception, and should be protected and cherished from that point on.

Dave Lindstrom: Led local fight against funding Planned Parenthood

There is no one more vulnerable than an unborn child. It should be nothing short of a national emergency that life has become so disposable in our present culture. As a county commissioner, Dave Lindstrom led the fight to successfully prevent county funding of Planned Parenthood. Dave will continue to fight against any effort to provide subsidies to organizations whose primary function is to devalue or encourage the destruction of human life.

Jake LaTurner: Innocent unborn children are among our most vulnerable

We must not give up on protecting life. In 2013 we passed a bill banning the practice of sex-selective abortion.
