Issues: Stem Cell Research Civil Liberties and Civil Rights Abortion Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity

I support overturning Roe v. Wade and returning the ultimate legal decisions on abortion to the 50 states. The people of Wyoming, through the state legislature and the constitutional amendment process, should have the right to establish policy on abortion, adoption, the definition of marriage, and other social and family matters in a manner that is consistent with their values, instead of these decisions being made in Washington, D.C.

Further, I oppose federal tax dollars being used for abortions, which includes any taxpayer dollars going towards abortion funding under a national health plan. I oppose human embryo destroying research, and have instead chosen to support alternative research, using ethically obtained stem-cells as viable alternatives.
