Darryl Glenn on Abortion |
Glenn: I am ardently pro-life and believe that life begins at conception. I recognize that the current state of our law has created exceptions for rape, incest, and in cases where the life of the mother is at risk.
Bennet: No
Glenn: Yes. Has pledged to ban abortions, with no exceptions. Recently has been more ambiguous. Has pledged to fight for personhood Constitutional amendment, which would effectively overturn Roe v. Wade, prohibit common forms of birth control, and ban abortions nationwide. More recently has hedged on some of these stands.
Q: On Contraception: Should employers be able to withhold contraceptive coverage from employees if they disagree with it morally?
Bennet: No. Classify contraception as preventive care so it is covered by all insurance plans.
Glenn: Unclear. Supports fetal personhood amendment, which might ban birth control pills & IUDs.
Q: On Healthcare: Should Planned Parenthood be eligible to receive public funds for non-abortion health services?
Bennet: Yes
Glenn: No
Glenn is committed to legislation that will protect unborn babies. Glenn will block federal funding to the nation's largest abortion provider, and he will vote to prevent taxpayer funding of abortions.
National Right to Life has one affiliate in each state; the president of the Colorado affiliate, Colorado Citizens for Life, stated, "Colorado needs a pro-life senator who will protect unborn children from a cruel death by abortion. Darryl Glenn has pledged to do just that."
