Right to Life act 2003

“Today I am introducing legislation that, if passed, will once and for all protect our unborn children from harm. Over 1.3 million abortions are performed in the United States each year and over 38 million have been performed since abortion was legalized in 1973. This is a national tragedy. It is the duty of all Americans to protect our children - born and unborn. This bill, the Right to Life Act, would provide blanket protection to all unborn children from the moment of conception.”

Abortion

Hunter introduced H.R. 552, The Right to Life Act, on February 2, 2005. The purpose of the bill is to “implement equal protection ... for the right to life of each born and preborn human person.” In the 109th Congress, the legislation collected 101 cosponsors.[5] Hunter states that The Right to Life Act “would legally define “personhood” as the moment of conception and, therefore, guarantee all constitutional rights and protections, including life, to the unborn without utilizing a constitutional amendment.”[6] Hearings for H.R. 552 were scheduled for December 12, 2006, but were cancelled right before the House adjourned.[7]
