Jack Bergman: Right to life includes the lives of those yet unborn

The first inalienable right described in the Declaration of Independence is the right to life, and the job of Congress is to protect our rights, not take them away. That includes the lives of those yet unborn. Rather than treating pregnancy or children as a problem, we should work together to create a society that welcomes them into our communities. Every person is a unique child of God, full of potential. As a member of Congress, I will protect the unborn and move the pro-life message forward.
