“Although I do not believe in abortions, I do believe in a woman’s right to choose. These decisions shouldn’t be made by men who have no clue of the challenges a woman faces when it comes to these decisions, whether it be rape, incest or lack of resources. There should not be this tremendous overreach in taking away a woman’s fundamental rights to choose and decide what to do with her body. I’m of the opinion that that’s between her and her God.”
