Don Stenberg on Abortion

Republican Senate challenger (NE)

Pro life; ban on partial birth abortions

Defend Life, and Religious Freedom: Pro-Life: I have been endorsed by all Nebraska right to life organizations in all previous elections. I defended Nebraska's ban on partial birth abortion all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court and personally argued Stenberg v. Carhart in support of the ban on partial birth abortions.

Opposes “Abortion is a woman’s right”

I am pro-life. On April 25, 2000, I will be in the United States Supreme Court defending Nebraska’s ban on partial birth abortions. This barbaric practice has no place in a civilized nation. In my opinion, Roe v. Wade is not sound constitutional law and should be overruled. This would allow our elected representatives to restrict and prohibit abortions.
