REMARKS
Remarks by Vice President Pence on the Importance of Life | Seminole, FL
LAW & JUSTICE
Issued on: August 5, 2020
Starkey Road Baptist Church
Seminole, Florida
1:54 P.M. EDT
THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, hello, Florida. (Applause.) Thank you so much for that wonderful welcome. To my friend Marilyn Musgrave and to Deputy Secretary Eric Hargan; to state representative and future Speaker of the Florida State House Chris Sprowls (applause); and to Pastor and Stephanie Parker here at Starkey Baptist Church, it is great to be back in church and great to be among so many champions for life. (Applause.)
And its a joy to be here with the Susan B. Anthony List. Founded in 1993, now a network of more than 800,000 Americans, SBA is the most effective pro-life grassroots organization in America. (Applause.)

I mean, the truth is that Joe Biden, the Democratic Party, and the radical left would undo all the progress that weve made in the cause of life. And what a contrast its been of the progress of life under this administration.
From the first day he took office, President Trump has been standing without apology for the sanctity of human life. (Applause.) It would be just after we were office a few days that the President reinstituted the Mexico City policy, making sure no taxpayer dollars would ever go to promote or provide abortion around the world, and then he expanded it a year later. (Applause.)
And President Trump became the first President in American history to address the March for Life in person on the National Mall. (Applause.)
In our first year in office, the President took executive action to end the assault on the conscience rights of a group of nuns, known as a Little Sisters of the Poor.
And we appointed justices to the Supreme Court who were part of a seven-to-two majority that ended the assault on the Little Sisters of the Poors pro-life convictions once and for all. (Applause.)
In fact, President Trump has appointed more conservatives to our courts of appeals than any President in American history. All told, 200 conservative judges appointed to our courts at every level. And Im here to tell you, theyre all principled conservatives who will uphold all the God-given liberties enshrined in our Constitution. (Applause.)
