Sen. Steve Daines
Montana (Republican)
Senator Daines has voted consistently to protect the lives of unborn babies and infants as well as the consciences of taxpayers who don’t want their hard-earned tax dollars paying for abortion domestically or internationally. While the pro-abortion majority in the U.S. House of Representatives continually sends the Senate bills that roll back pro-life protections, the Senate has made it their priority to confirm judges and justices who will respect the constitution and leave legislating to the legislative branch.
Senator Daines is the Chair of the first ever Senate Pro-Life Caucus and a Co-chair of the Senate Values Action Team. He led the Senate letter to the President requesting a veto threat for any anti-life legislation as well as a letter to the President encouraging his ongoing efforts to defeat anti-life policies in appropriations. Senator Daines also co-led a bicameral letter to OPM Acting Director urging enforcement of the Smith Amendment.
