Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) is one of many pro-life Representatives who spoke out
against the bill.
In an address before Congress, she said, “It’s a fact: when it’s legal and ‘free’, it’s an inducement
to women who find themselves in a hard spot to have an abortion.”
She continued, arguing that pro-abortion legislators are depriving women of
important information by passing a bill that prohibits states from requiring
women to have ultrasounds before scheduling abortions. “Women change
their mind when they see the baby in the womb.”
Miller concluded, “The American people from all faiths and walks of life
have to choose what kind of society they want to live in: one that defends and
protects a nine-month baby in the womb or one that is going to sell its body
for parts.”
