now yield one minute to my friend, my fellow hoosier, indiana's fourth district, representative jim baird. thank you, jackie. i just want to say thank you and appreciate all your efforts regarding this issue. but mr. speaker, i rise here today to voice a concern over the actions taking place in new york, virginia and across the country. the direct -- directly threaten the sanctity of life. these proposals are far beyond what hoosiers in my community and most folks around the country believe is right. that's why i'm proud to co-sponsor house resolution 962, the born alive abortion survivors protection act. this legislation will make it illegal to kill babies that are born alive after surviving an attempted abortion. the degradation of life in this country is deeply concerning. congress needs to step up and do what's right. the extreme views of some should not overwhelm the commonsense majority of millions of americans. protecting the sanctity of life is something i will continue to fight for to ensure that those without a voice can be heard and their lives spared. and i yield back my time.
