From Catholic Vote today:
Paul Ryan, Representative from Wisconsin's 1st District
Life
Co-sponsored the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act.
Voted to amend the health care law so that no federal funds may be used to pay for any part of any healthcare plan that offers abortion coverage.
Voted for the Abortion Pain Bill and the Child Interstate Abortion Notification Act.
Voted to prohibit partial birth abortion.
Marriage
Voted for a resolution proposing a constitutional amendment that would define marriage as the union between one man and one woman.
Voted against repealing Dont Ask Dont Tell.
Religious liberty
Voted for the Religious Liberty Protection Act of 1999.
On the HHS mandate: This is much, much bigger than about contraception. This is about religious freedom, First Amendment rights, and how this progressive philosophy of fungible rights of a living breathing constitution really clashes and collides with these core rights that we built our society and country around.
Embryonic life
Voted against the Stem Cell Research Act of 2007, which would have required the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to conduct and support research on embryonic stem cells.
Voted in favor of developing methods to produce stem cells without using human embryos.

One pro-life agency said of Paul Ryan and his time in Congress that he is one of the few who has never voted against any of their positions on legislation. He has never cast anything other than a pro-life vote on legislation, amendments, etc. That’s a commendable record no matter who you are.
So, if Ryan had been our nominee, I would have gladly supported him.
And not just in pro-life areas but also in other areas important to social conservatives. He is solid in every area in the social/fiscal arena with a 92% lifetime ACU rating.
