Remarks as prepared are below:

"Madam Speaker, I rise in support of the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act.
 
All life is sacred. Defending innocent lives should not be a policy issue.
 
This legislation protects babies who are not only born, but who are then left without care from an attempted abortion. A baby who survives an abortion should receive the same medical attention any other premature baby would.
 
These precious souls are given another chance at life. It is unacceptable there are no criminal charges for those who want to take life away. The people who allow babies to be killed after birth must be fully prosecuted.
 
Let’s be clear: killing a baby who is born alive, regardless of an attempted abortion, is murder.
 
The previous Democrat controlled House has refused to vote on this bill. Today, a Republican-led majority keeps our commitment to America by voting on legislation that upholds the sanctity of life.
 
I urge the swift passage of this bill on the House floor. I yield back the balance of my time."
