Pro-Life Activist Norma McCorvey ('Jane Roe' of Roe v. Wade) Endorses Ron Paul for President
"Ron Paul Doesn't Just Talk about Being Pro-Life, He Acts on It"
WASHINGTON--(Business Wire)--On Tuesday, January 22 - the 35th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade
Supreme Court decision - Norma McCorvey has endorsed Texas Congressman
Ron Paul for president.
Norma McCorvey runs Crossing over Ministry - formerly Roe No More
Ministry - and is best known as "Jane Roe" in the Supreme Court's Roe
v. Wade decision. McCorvey, who is now a pro-life activist, issued the
following endorsement of Congressman Paul:
"Ron Paul states, 'The right of an innocent, unborn child to life
is at the heart of the American ideals of liberty.'
"I support Ron Paul for president because we share the same goal,
that of overturning Roe v Wade. Ron Paul doesn't just talk about being
pro-life, he acts on it. His voting record truly is impeccable and he
undoubtedly understands our constitutional republic and the
inalienable right to life for all. Ron Paul is the prime author of
H.R. 300, which would negate the effect of Roe v. Wade. As the signor
of the affidavit that legalized abortion 35 years ago I appreciate Ron
Paul's action to restore protection for the unborn. Ron Paul has also
authored H.R. 1094 in Congress, which seeks to define life as
beginning at conception. He has never wavered on the issue of being
pro-life and has a voting record to prove it. He understands the
importance of civil liberties for all, including the unborn.
"After taking all of the presidential candidates into
consideration, it is obvious that Ron Paul is the only one that
doesn't just talk the talk. For this reason and those stated above, I
am publicly endorsing Ron Paul for president."
