Gudger addresses abortion bill at Republican Women meeting

Date: June 12, 2019

About passing HB 314, informally know as the "abortion bill" would make performing an abortion at any stage of pregnancy a felony punishable by 10 to 99 years, or life in prison, for the provider. The only exception in the bill would be if a woman's health is at serious risk. No exceptions would be made in the case of rape or incest.

Defending his "yes" vote on HB 314, Gudger said, "In the end, when you stand up for what you believe in, you dig your feet in, and you say "I'm not leaving my position, because I believe it's right,' whether you agree with my position or not, that's what I did and I think that everyone that's from Cullman, Alabama or loves Cullman, Alabama, that's the way that I was raised is you dig in and you do what's right, and don't apologize for it. And I haven't."
