SFLAction Congratulates Speaker-Elect Mike Johnson, an A+ Champion for LIFE  

 

“With this crucial vote now finalized, the Pro-Life Gen is ready to work alongside Speaker-Elect Mike Johnson, to protect life in law and in service, at home and worldwide,” said Students for Life Action’s Kristan Hawkins. 

WASHINGTON, D.C. (10-25-2023) – Students for Life Action (SFLAction) President Kristan Hawkins congratulated Rep. Mike Johnson on his election to the position of Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.  During the chaotic process, Hawkins eventually called for resolution of the Speaker vacancy, even scoring one of the votes, as “Rumors of power sharing with the radically pro-abortion House Democratic Leadership signaled that this chaos needs to come to an end.” Today, Hawkins observed, “Rep. Mike Johnson is a pro-life champion with an A+ on SFLAction’s Pro-Life Generation Report Card. We need a House Speaker who is as solid on life as he is.”

Among the issues requiring attention is a burgeoning war in the Middle East. Evidence of the abortion obsession of the current leadership in Washington D.C. can be seen in an effort to blame pro-life Americans for the actions of Hamas. In particular, Sen. Tommy Tuberville has faced attack for his role in keeping abortion funds out of military spending.
