Webster and Colleagues Introduce the Protect the UNBORN Act
September 16, 2022
Washington, D.C. — Yesterday, Florida Congressman Daniel Webster, R-Clermont, joined Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA), and nearly 90 members of Congress to introduce the “Protect the UNBORN (Undo the Negligent Biden Orders Right Now) Act. This bill would prohibit the implementation of and funding for President Biden’s pro-abortion Executive Orders.
“Life is our most precious gift, something national leaders should work to protect, not undermine,” said Rep. Webster. “President Biden’s Pro-Abortion Executive Orders are another attempt by Democrat leaders to circumvent state laws and promote abortion up until birth.
“I will continue to defend the rights of the unborn, to stand for life and oppose attempts to remove nearly all pro-life protections for the unborn at both the state and federal levels. I have helped create programs proven to equip at-risk families to establish safe, stable, and nurturing homes. I will keep fighting to protect the lives of the unborn, pregnant moms, children in the foster care system and young families, while also fighting against executive overreach.”
