Q&A with Alaska U.S. House candidates in the special primary election: What is your position on abortion?
I believe in the right to life. Life is already started before a heart beats, and ends when the heart stops beating. Our constitution for the U.S. does not give any power to Congress to deal with this controversial issue. I’m a constitutionalist and believe in limited government. This is and always has been a state and individual issue that the U.S. federal government should never have gotten involved in, like many things.
In general, I’m usually against taking life except to save life; accordingly, the life and safety of the mother would certainly be prioritized.Abortion should be available, with some restrictions related to viability and or fetal heartbeat detection, and for victims of rape and incest.I believe very strongly that it is a woman’s sole right to control her own body and choose what she wants; it is none of the government’s business what a woman decides to do with her body.
