                      PROTECT THE SANCTITY OF LIFE

  (Mr. MOORE of Alabama asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. MOORE of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, as a Christian and father of four, 
the issue of abortion is personal to me. I believe an unborn child is a 
human life, fearfully and wonderfully made and worth protecting.
  In the last 50 years, scientific advancements have taught us a great 
deal about the early stages of life. As early as 5 weeks, babies in the 
womb have a heartbeat.
  Roe v. Wade is an inherently flawed opinion. Nowhere in our 
Constitution exists the right to abort a child.
  Recently, we watched the far left and liberal media attack our 
Supreme Court Justices after a leaked draft opinion shows that the 
Court might overturn Roe and give the States the power to decide this 
issue.
  Never content to let a crisis go to waste, the Senate Democrats tried 
to advance a radical and inhumane bill that would guarantee the right 
to abort a baby up until the moment of birth--until the very moment of 
birth.
  Shouldn't a debate like this take place in the States, where citizens 
will have more input on this important issue?
  I will continue fighting for the unborn, as well as the radical 
propaganda coming out of Washington. We must stop extreme attacks and 
protect the sanctity of life at all costs.
