Congressional Candidates: At a Glance

Lizzie Fletcher’s views on abortion are extreme.  Most Texans, whether pro-life or pro-choice, believe there should be reasonable restrictions on abortion to protect the health and safety of women and their unborn children, but Lizzie Fletcher doesn’t think there should be any limits at all. Fletcher has been endorsed by a radical pro-abortion group which supports abortion on-demand, up to the moment of birth paid for by taxpayers.

On his campaign website Wesley says: “My wife and I were blessed last year with our first child, Victoria. I’m pro-life and believe that we need to protect the sanctity of life. Taxpayers should not have to pay for abortions and I support legislation to protect babies from late-term abortion.”
