Nashville, TN – Today, South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham introduced the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The legislation currently has 33 cosponsors – but Senator Alexander is not one of them. Conservative Senate candidate Joe Carr called on Senator Alexander to change his stance and add himself as a co-sponsor.
“I’m strongly pro-life and believe it’s imperative the Senate pass this important piece of legislation. When Senator Graham announced his co-sponsors and Senator Alexander’s name was missing, I was disappointed. I am hoping Senator Alexander will change his stance and add himself as a co-sponsor. This legislation is too important to the pro-life movement for him to stay on the sidelines,” said conservative Senate candidate Joe Carr.
The National Right to Life describes the bill as “landmark legislation to provide nationwide protection for unborn children who are capable of feeling pain, beginning at 20 weeks fetal age (equivalent to “22 weeks of pregnancy,” the beginning of the sixth month).” (www.NRLC.org)
Joe Carr is 100% pro-life and his voting record reflects the same. As adoptive parents, Joe Carr and his wife Ginny believe strongly in promoting adoption as well.

GOP-e tries to promote a cover story for Linda which they all know will never even come up for a vote in the Senate.

Yep. It’s “let’s pretend.”
There you go, right on the money.
Lamar was on with Huckabee last night really taking it to Obamacare. Nice of him to join the party. The Late Senator Alexander.

Lamar, Corker and Marsha Blackburn are the axis of Amnesty.
Did Blackburn endorse both these losers?
