                            PROTECTING LIFE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from 
Indiana (Mrs. Walorski) for 5 minutes.
  Mrs. WALORSKI. I rise today to address the importance of protecting 
life.
  While I am home in Indiana, spending time in our communities, the 
importance of strong values and Hoosier common sense continues to rule 
the foundations of our families.
  I believe it is critical for Congress to act today to protect human 
life and to treat women and the unborn children with the protection 
they deserve from the dangers of late-term abortions. We are talking 
about the next generation of moms and grandmothers, of aunts and 
sisters and of our loved ones. There is not a price that can be put on 
the value of an innocent human life. I have been a strong supporter of 
life and of defending the unborn, and I feel that it's our 
responsibility to protect the most vulnerable who cannot protect 
themselves.
  I urge my colleagues to join me in the support of H.R. 1797 for the 
sake of protecting the unborn from late-term abortions.
