GREENVILLE, TEXAS – House District 2 Representative Bryan Slaton pledged this weekend to re-file legislation that would completely abolish abortions in Texas, if passed. The bill would “end discrimination against the life of innocent children, and will guarantee the equal protection of the laws to all Texans from the moment of conception,” according to a press release from Slaton’s office.
Rep. Slaton stated, “Throughout the 87th legislature, I fought for the complete abolition of abortion, and looked for every opportunity to advance this righteous cause. The laws of God and nature are clear that life begins at conception, and abortion is murder, plain and simple. We must start acting like it. I pledge to re-file legislation in the 88th legislature to completely abolish abortion and ignore the erroneous opinion of Roe v Wade. Texas must lead on this issue, and we cannot wait for the courts to do the right thing.”
