Sen. Eric Schmitt
Missouri (Republican)
Summary
118th Congress Sen. Schmitt has stood up against the extremist nominees of the pro-abortion Biden-Harris administration and against pro-abortion action both in the administration and through legislation advanced by Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. Sen. Schmitt has voted consistently to defend the lives of the unborn and infants. This includes stopping hard-earned tax dollars from paying for abortion, including abortion travel expenses, whether domestically or internationally, and pushing back on the administration’s extreme executive actions on abortion.
In a confirmation hearing, Sen. Schmitt noted that the Biden-Harris administration’s insertion of abortion politics in the military is harmful to military recruiting efforts. He said in another hearing that the Biden-Harris administration should not be promoting abortion in the military.

S. 4381, Right to Contraception ActS.4381, better described as the Payouts for Planned Parenthood Act, would funnel money to abortion providers, override conscience protections, and could mandate access to abortion drugs. It also feeds into the false narrative that states have prohibited contraceptives or family planning, or that there are federal efforts to do so. ROLL CALLREAD MORE |

S. 4445, Right to IVF ActS.4445 is a solution in search of a problem, as fertility treatments are widely available and there are no serious efforts to curtail thoughtful care for those experiencing infertility.
