Press Release

Date: July 17, 2022
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Abortion

Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) and 56 of his House Republican colleagues joined a lettersent to President Biden, urging him to resend his recent Executive Order aimed at "protecting access" to abortion in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision.

The letter sent to the President led by Rep. Andrew Clyde (GA-09) described President Biden's Executive Order as "a direct affront to this nation's democratic process and a blatant disrespect for the sanctity of the Supreme Court."

"The recent Executive Order from the Biden Administration defending the right to terminate the lives of unborn children up until the moment of birth is further proof of how extreme and beyond the mainstream Biden and Washington Democrats have moved on abortion," said Moore. "I am proud to fight alongside Rep. Clyde and so many of my other colleagues to protect innocent life and block this attempt by the Biden administration to strip away the Constitutional right of citizens in each state to enact their own abortion laws".

In the letter Republicans write, "It is high time that we return to Constitutional order in this nation. The Supreme Court has returned long-overdue power to American voters, and we demand that you respect the Constitution's balance of power between the three branches of our great government. Therefore, you must respect the Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Heath Organization to give decision-making power back to American Voters".
