as you can see, susan b. anthony also expressed her thoughts about pro-life in the publication "the revolution." guilty? yes. no matter what the motive, love of ease or desire to save from the unborn innocent, the woman is awfully guilty who commits the deed. it will burden her conscience in life. it will burden her soul in death. mr. speaker, those words were written over 100 years ago, over 150 years ago, and yet they could easily be written today because today, mr. speaker, we hear from women who've had the painful tragedy of abortion on their soul and they talk about how their heart reaps because of the life that they gave up and how they want not just to forgive themselves but to protect women from that awful decision that they made to protect other women from the suffering that they have. and yet, susan b. anthony knew that years ago. so you see in history pro-life was an issue. and you know, you have to think about it, mr. speaker, and you have to think it makes sense because the whole issue of abortion, it ju

rights movement would not have happened without the dedication and passion of women like kb, and susan b. anthony. they used their anchor to fuel and ignite their voices. many of these women who risk their lives often found themselves find, jailed, in prison, but they still stood up to equality as human beings. even in the earliest beginnings of the country, it was women like sacajawea who showed lewis and clark not only the way to go but carried her baby on her back for 1,000 miles. women like gloria steinem, who earned our respect by bringing women's equality into the mainstream, or rosa parks, who refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white woman. she became a powerful symbol of the civil rights movement. and don't forget candace let mayor, who lost her child to a drunk driver. she joined with other grieving mothers to create one of the most successful grass-roots efforts in american history, mothers against drunk driving. for those of you who did the morning sessions, you have taken a closer look at violence and health-care issues within the context of women around the globe. in the midst

>> i did an article with the susan b. anthony list calling for the de-funding of planned parenthood from federal funds. it was a traditional values pro- family group writing together. we said the government should not be in the business of funding this stuff. i want to find cotton can be there. -- candy either. there are many reasons to oppose hundreds of millions of dollars being paid to a healthy nonprofit that has plenty of resources. taxpayers should not pay for that. that said, i am in favor of getting rid of it as quickly as possible in legislation that you can enact. i am very supportive of the house and senate leadership plan of getting two weeks and taking a back to the 2008 levels of discretionary spending. we won that first fight and now we are doing three weeks and you have to drop $6 billion. the administration came back just before that two week second and said we will give you $8 billion for four weeks. we could have had a deal if they had done that earlier. the administration is willing to cut spending and they ha

susan b. anthony list works so hard against obama care and there's so many reasons to hate it. as the lieutenant governor of new york illustrated so appropriately, but susan b anthony lift went after government funding of abortion. don't be see seaved, obama care, health care reform legislation caused the greatest expansion of abortions since row v wade, that dark day row v wade. susan b anthony list has been fighting that every step of the way. again it was an election issue. amazingly we conservatives all know this. when abortionists talk about in the republican party in the democrat party you get these stoney faces. you know exactly what i mean. just don't talk about it. it's kind of like the truce thing connie. just don't talk about those social issues. but since row v. wade, abortion has not gone away. it has not gone away because we know that laws can either take lives or save lives. so what they do in washington matters. and when they want to take our tax dollars and fund an organization like planned parenthood at the tune of over $360 million a year, to give money to the

the picture has been made as susan b. anthony said, who believed it is not sufficient nearly to denounce abortion, anthony considered it the work of women to prevent this violation. this is the task that susan b. anthony gives us to continue today. like anthony we too must challenge the status quo for the sake of women and their children. women deserve better than abortion. thank you and i will yield back my time. mrs. schmidt: thank you to the gentlelady from north carolina for so eloquently pointing out some of the dangers of abortion, both physical and emotional. and i don't think the chapter, mr. speaker, has been written on the dangers of abortion. but i do wonder the lives that we've missed and the fabric and how it has been compromised the fabric of america, the fabric of the world because an innocent life didn't get to be woven into it. you know, when we're born our parents don't know what we're going to become. they just hope that we're happy and they hope that we're healthy. i mean, you look at our president. you think
