I would try and I would find other pro-life Reps and team up but I can give no promises of success. |
On the topic of this election;
You seem to understand here that you would have no ability to affect the change you seek.
Knowing that abortion laws are state laws, not federal, and that you don't believe that you could affect any change in the laws, why do you say this is your most important issue?
I'm not asking why it's important, I'm asking why it's your issue in running for an office where you cannot cause the change you seek.
Why not wait until the election for the office that would make a difference?
