Robert Sarvis on Abortion |
A: Yes.
Q: Do you support state funding for embryonic stem cell research?
A: Yes.
A: It depends on the actual legislation. I, like the majority of voters, occupy the middle ground between the two strict/absolutist positions.
Q: Should abortion be legal after the first trimester of pregnancy?
A: There is support, even in the 35th District, for restricting medically unnecessary late-term abortions, but there is not support in the 35th District for banning early-term abortions. The vast majority of voters don't want this election hinging on divisive, social-wedge issues. And neither do I.
Q: Should abortion be legal when the pregnancy resulted from incest or rape?
A: Yes.
Q: Should abortion be legal when the life of the woman is endangered?
A: Yes.
Q: Should parental notification be required before an abortion is performed on a minor?
A: Yes.
Q: Should parental consent be required before an abortion is performed on a minor?
A: Yes.
