I was not aware that Ryan ever was/claimed to be pro-life.

How many in the House really are? Lipinski? Peterson?

Tim Ryan claimed to be pro-life when he first ran for Congress, and voted generally pro-life for the first year or two, but voted for embryonic stem-cell research (the gateway drug of abortionism) and has voted almost exclusively pro-abortion ever since.

A dozen years ago there were several dozen House Democrats that generally voted pro-life (and even 5 years ago there were iver a dozen), but now the House is down to Collin Peterson, Dan Lipinski and maybe Henry Cuellar (the latter votes pro-life more often than not, but not consistently so). A few other House Democrats cast pro-life votes occasionally, such as Stephen Lynch and Marcie Kaptur.
