Legislators across the county weigh in on the landmark decision by the Supreme Court today.

Kansas GOP Representative Ron Estes in his comments on the Supreme Court Ruling overturning Roe v. Wade says “After more than 60 million babies were denied the blessing of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness before they were even born, the disastrous and misguided Roe v. Wade ruling from 1973 has finally been overturned. Today’s ruling does not ban abortion but returns abortion regulation to each state and their democratically elected officials. As the left continues to push radical abortion policy in Kansas, this gives a new voice to the majority who want common-sense laws that protect mothers and babies, like parental consent for minors, no taxpayer-funded abortions, and an end to late-term abortions.”
