| Message | We agree with JKK. It is a true measure of society as to how we treat those without a voice and without representation. Unborn children are the most vulnerable and we must protect their future. To pass this would be shameful. |

| Message | So what do you suggest that we do Mr. Speaker? Women have something in their body they don't want? The State comes and tells them too bad. You have to keep it? This is a violation of personal liberty. |

| Message | What about the liberty of the unborn child? Doesn't the State effectively come and tell them "too bad"? A woman should not have the "liberty" to end life. UCC stands with the unborn. Women can give their children away through adoption to the many families willing to do so. |

| Message | So the state is mandating that a woman cannot remove something from her body? If she wants so badly to remove something from her body and she can't? Because the state wants to tell her too bad keep it inside of you. When a woman has an abortion it's not between you. It's between the woman and her future, the doctor, and God.

| Message | The state should mandate that a woman is not allowed to kill her baby, just as she not allowed to kill anyone else. If she does, there should be consequences. |
