 (En Espaņol) John McCain on Abortion
A Closer Look at John McCain NRL PAC Ad for John McCain
National Right to Life PAC strongly supports Senator John McCain for President of the United States and we have supported him in all of his U.S. Senate races. Senator John McCain has an exemplary voting record against abortion. He has cast 31 pro-life votes since 1997. This includes voting for a bill that would prevent minor daughters from being taken across state lines for secret abortions without parental notice or consent, voting against taxpayer funding for abortion, and voting for a ban on the brutal partial-birth abortion procedure. He voted to confirm Justices Alito and Roberts. He has also voted against endorsing Roe v. Wade and believes it should be overturned. National Right to Life is very grateful for Senator McCain's pro-life votes. In contrast, the Democratic nominee, Senator Barack Obama, has an extreme position and voting record in favor of abortion on demand. He strongly supports the appointment of only U.S. Supreme Court Justices who support abortion on demand. During the next presidency, one to three U.S. Supreme Court justices may retire, which will determine the direction of the Court for generations to come. Senator Obama is a co-sponsor of the so-called "Freedom of Choice Act", a bill that would make partial-birth abortion legal again, it would require taxpayer funding of abortion, and would strike down all current limitations on abortion such as parental notification laws. Senator Obama even voted four times against a bill in the Illinois State Senate that would have provided protection for babies who survive abortions equal to protection received by babies who are spontaneously born prematurely. In sharp contrast, Senator John McCain voted in the US Senate for the federal Born Alive Infants Protection Act to require that children born alive receive the same care provided to other premature infants. The choice for president is clear. National Right to Life PAC supports Senator John McCain for election as President of the United States and strongly opposes Barack Obama.
