42ND ANNIVERSARY OF ROE V. WADE
(Mr. MESSER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. MESSER. Mr. Speaker, 3,288 per day, 137 per hour, one every 26
seconds--that is how many children are denied their God-given right to
life each and every day. As we mark the 42nd anniversary of Roe v.
Wade, we should remember each of those children and the potential each
had.
Mr. Speaker, I am unapologetically pro-life and have been a longtime
supporter of efforts to protect the unborn. Because every human life is
precious, we must continue to fight for those who cannot fight for
themselves.
Today I stand on behalf of those children and of future children who
may never have a chance. We must stand together and never forget until
the battle for life is won.
