Summary: 

Voting Sequence for House on Pregnancy and Support Bill  

It is unfortunate to note that certain Republicans, including House members Karen Gonzalez-Pittman voted against and Tracy Koster did not vote on this crucial bill. It is puzzling and disheartening to see a self-proclaimed Christian and Republican vote against a bill that aims to safeguard the innocent lives of babies. There is no valid reason or excuse for such a decision.

"That is what Catholics are called to: to be unconditionally pro-life. There is no ambiguity in the words of Peter's successor. To be Catholic is to be unconditionally pro-life.  It is a scandal that Catholic politicians vote for bills which fund or otherwise advance abortion. They should be named, publicly shamed and admonished so that they can cease their evil and return to God.  (Teresa Miller- I would say this applies to all Christians not just Catholics.)
