2022 GA Senate race: on Abortion


Herschel Walker: Is "strongly pro-life" including conservative judges

Days after the Texas abortion law went into effect [allowing personal lawsuits against abortion clinics], Walker's camp put out a statement saying only that he's "strongly pro-life" and would support constitutional conservatives for judges.

Herschel Walker: Supports a total abortion ban without any exceptions

In his responses to a survey questionnaire from the Georgia Life Alliance, Walker indicated he supported a total ban on all abortion, without exceptions for rape, incest, or saving the mother's life. "I am 100% pro-life. As Georgia's next senator, I will vote for any legislation which protects the sanctity of human life, even if the legislation is not perfect," he wrote on the questionnaire. "Every human life is valuable and absolutely worth saving."

Latham Saddler: Will fight to protect the lives of all our unborn children

Every parent knows the God-given instinct deep within us to protect our children. As a father, Latham knows this too, and hearing his sons' hearts beating for the first times solidified his belief in protecting unborn life. His twin brother, Ashby, who has Down syndrome, is a shining example of the extraordinary impact that a single life can have. Latham is pro-life and will fight to protect the lives of all our unborn children.
