	Jim Pillen on Abortion

Launch a yearlong "Culture of Life and Love Initiative"

We defended the unborn by restricting abortions beyond 12 weeks. We will continue to embrace life here in Nebraska with the launch of a yearlong "Culture of Life and Love Initiative." It will provide resources to expecting moms, especially those in crisis and who need support more than ever. Much work remains to be done, but this Legislature should be proud of its investments in Nebraska's future. Source: 2024 State of the State Address to the Nebraska legislature , Jan 18, 2024

Nebraskans have been praying for 50 years to end abortion

Nebraska is a pro-life state. Many Nebraskans have been praying for 50 years to end abortion. This discussion has gotten too complicated and misleading. Here is what pro-life policy is NOT in Nebraska--it's NOT about preventative contraception. It's NOT about in-vitro fertilization. It's NOT a fertility medicine discussion. It is simply about stopping what started 50 years ago--the abortion of babies growing in mother's wombs. I am fighting for the rights of every baby with a beating heart.

I am proudly pro-life, life begins at conception

I am proudly prolife. I believe life begins at conception and that Nebraska should advance a culture of life and protect the unborn. I am committed to protecting Nebraska's most vulnerable. I oppose taxpayer money funding organizations that commit abortions, and support adoption options for mothers and families in crisis.
