U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), received an A+ Rating on the Susan B. Anthony List National Pro-Life Scorecard, their highest rating, for the 117th Congress.
“I am humbled and thankful to be recognized by the Susan B. Anthony List with an A+ rating for the 117th Congress as a result of my efforts to protect life, especially during the week of the annual March for Life,” Inhofe said. “Since Roe v. Wade, over 62 million babies have been killed due to the horror of abortion – 62 million lives with countless potential and value. I am grateful to the Susan B. Anthony List and their tireless work on behalf of the pro-life movement. As we continue to fight against an extremely anti-life administration, I am committed to standing up for the sanctity of human life and fighting in Congress to bring a voice to the unborn.”
“With the Supreme Court poised to decide the Dobbs late abortion case, potentially returning abortion policy to the people and their elected representatives, the life issue will be front and center in this year’s midterm elections,” said Hon. Marilyn Musgrave, SBA List’s vice president of government affairs in a press release announcing the scores. “In contrast to Republicans who are more united than ever in support of life, nearly all congressional Democrats support the radical Biden agenda of abortion on demand up to birth, well past the point when unborn children can feel pain, and even infanticide. Our National Pro-life Scorecard reflects that record. The overwhelming majority of Americans reject pro-abortion extremism. They deserve to know where their elected officials stand so they can hold them accountable and elect a pro-life majority to Congress this November.”
Inhofe has long been a leader on legislative efforts to end the practice of abortion, including authoring the Protecting Individuals with Down Syndrome Act, and cosponsoring almost 30 pro-life pieces of legislation in the 117th Congress alone, including the Life at Conception Act, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act and the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. He worked with the Trump administration to guarantee that federal tax dollars can’t go towards abortion by protecting the Hyde Amendment.
