Review Bill

“I believe birth begins at conception. I do realize the political realities may not accommodate that belief in law, and most Right To Life organizations are promoting a heartbeat bill. I can support a heartbeat bill, and believe that we should do more to ensure that pregnant women who choose life will be supported. Adoption must become less burdensome in NC.”
