On Presidents' Day, which commander-in-chief best embraced the preborn? WashTimesOpEd
In the Declaration of Independence, we read that all people are “endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Yet, as we look at the current administration, we see that they work diligently at denying a certain sector of society—preborn babies—with the right to life.
Judie Brown, president of American Life League, knew and met with President Reagan on several occasions. She recently stated, “President Reagan rued the day that, when as governor, he signed the 1967 abortion law in California, and he said [this] many times, not necessarily for publicity but because he had genuinely changed his mind. Having spoken with him about this, I believe he was sincere.”
Mr. Biden has also taken steps to undo pro-life policies created by previous administrations. In 1984, President Reagan established the Mexico City Policy that “required foreign non-governmental organizations to certify that they would not ‘perform or actively promote abortion as a method of family planning’ using funds from any source as a condition of receiving U.S. government global family planning funding.
But while it was race relations and not abortion that was foremost on America’s collective mind during JFK’s presidency, his 1962 appointment of Byron White to the Supreme Court left an immense pro-life legacy. In a statement after the appointment, Mr. Kennedy said, “His varied experience in legal practice, in government, and in the Navy … have given him a humane and understanding approach to people and to problems.
