Steve Womack

For Immediate Release:

February 9, 2011

WASHINGTON – Congressman Steve Womack is happy to co-sponsor H.R. 3, “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act”, which would prohibit the use of federal funds for abortions, including health benefit plans that provide coverage for abortions. 

Congressman Womack Released this statement earlier Wednesday regarding his co-sponsorship:

    “I don’t – and won’t – compromise on certain closely held beliefs, and abortion is one of those.  Federal funding for abortions is both wrong and irresponsible and as a member of Congress, I have pledged to represent the values of my district every day.  HR3 goes right to the heart of one of these values and my decision to co-sponsor was an easy one.

- Congressman Steve Womack
