WASHINGTON, D.C. (09-14-2022) – Students for Life Action President Kristan Hawkins made the following statement in support of a package of bills called the Providing for Life Act as a way to strengthen support for pregnant and parenting women and support vulnerable families.

She said: “Sen. Marco Rubio’s Providing for Life Act is a compassionate and intelligent approach to building a culture of life in a Post-Roe America. The plan provides new opportunities for faith-based and service organizations to engage in helping even more women, allows people to use their own money to benefit their families, and ensures that abortion vendors like Planned Parenthood don’t siphon off scarce resources from deserving women. We must protect life in law and in service, and Sen. Rubio’s package of bills will help us do just that. For more than 10 years, Students for Life of America’s Standing with You initiative connects women with help at the local, state, and federal levels so that no woman stands alone in her moment of need. We are also standing with Sen. Rubio as he works to help women and their children, born and preborn.”

Hawkins has previously supported innovative family and medical leave options. Read her op-eds from The Hill here or at RealClearPolitics here.
