Paul Sadler on Abortion

 


It's a woman's right to make her own medical decisions

Q: Is abortion a woman's right?

A: Paul Sadler supports a woman's right to make her own medical decisions. He believes whether or not a woman has an abortion is something that should be decided by a woman, along with her family, her doctor, her clergy, and whomever she chooses; but not by politicians in Washington, D.C. Paul supports legislation requiring parental consent for minors to receive abortions, as long as such legislation includes a judicial bypass option.

No funding; no second trimester; no partial-birth

Q: Should Texas government funding be provided to clinics and medical facilities that provide abortion services?

A: No.
