A 1990 Gallup poll found that 77 percent of Americans polled said abortion was the taking of human life. I agree, and believe that taking the life on an innocent child is unjust.

A vast abortion industry, generating some half a billion dollars annually, sprang into existence in the wake of Roe and Doe.
Robert Casey
Abortion is a question of choice.
Robert Casey
Abortion is defended today as a means of ensuring the equality and independence of women, and as a solution to the problems of single parenting, child abuse, and the feminization of poverty.
Robert Casey
Abortion is the ultimate violence.
Robert Casey
Abortion on demand has, in my judgment, contributed significantly to an environment in our country in which life has become very cheap.
Robert Casey
Abortion on demand, throughout the full nine months of a pregnancy, for virtually any reason, became public policy in the United States of America. No other developed democracy had, or has, such a permissive abortion regime.
Robert Casey
Advocates of unrestricted abortion do not want the public to focus on these undeniable facts of fetal development, but the facts cannot be ignored.
Robert Casey
Any man who has ever tried to use political power for the common good has felt an awful sense of powerlessness.
Robert Casey
As I discovered, even the governor of a major state who holds pro-life views can be denied a hearing at his party's convention without the national media protesting it.
Robert Casey
By rejecting abortion-on-demand, we can move our party back to the mainstream.
Robert Casey
For almost twenty years, abortion policy in America has been controlled by the courts.
Robert Casey
From the beginning, each human embryo has its own unique genetic identity.
Robert Casey
However, we might oppose it, abortion is a sad feature of modern life.
Robert Casey
I am convinced that this approach, a mainstream Democratic approach, commands the strong support of the American people, and presents a sharp and compassionate contrast to the Republican abortion position which offers no real hope or commitment to mother or child.
Robert Casey
I am fairly certain that my abortion position hurt me, because in a Democratic primary, where turnout is relatively low, liberal voters turn out in disproportionately large numbers and thus exercise a disproportionate influence on the outcome.
Robert Casey
I come to urge my party to be open to debate and discussion; to move away from a lock-step litmus test which advocates abortion on demand in an effort to reach a broader national consensus.
Robert Casey
If our country is to reach a workable solution to the abortion issue, the Democratic party must be open to and tolerant of opposing views.
Robert Casey
In short, our response as a party should be to work to solve the crises that produce crisis pregnancies, and work to make life worth living for mother and child, rather than victimize the child as a way of dealing with the crisis.
Robert Casey
In this generation, the issue pressing that question on our consciences is the issue of abortion.
