Nikki Haley is on a mission to bring people together and find a national consensus on the divisive issue of abortion. And she&#8217;s not just talking the talk, she&#8217;s walking the walk.<\/p>\n<p>During a speech hosted by the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List in Arlington, Virginia, Haley pledged to do everything in her power to save as many lives and help as many moms as possible. But she knows that to achieve this goal at the federal level, the next president must find national consensus.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video_fit_container\">\t\t<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"671\" height=\"377\" class=\"video_frame\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1Yb0mzUuyks?wmode=transparent&#038;wmode=opaque\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe> \t\t<\/div>\n<p>As a Republican presidential nominee, Haley is unapologetically pro-life, not because her party tells her to be, but for very personal reasons. Her husband is reason number one that she stands for life. Every day spent with the love of her life reminds her that she is blessed that someone saved his life.<\/p>\n<p>Her husband was born into an impoverished and broken home, where his birth father was \u201cin and out of prison\u201d and his birth mother had suffered a traumatic brain injury. When he was very young, Haley\u2019s husband and his siblings were removed from their biological parents\u2019 home and placed into foster care. Thankfully, when he was four years old, a loving family adopted Michael and his younger sister. Adoption literally saved them.<\/p>\n<p>The other reason Haley cited for her pro-life stance was the fact that she had personally struggled to conceive children, only succeeding after countless fertility treatments. She believes every life is a blessing from God and her heart hurts when someone decides not to go through with a pregnancy.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Finding Consensus<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Citing her pro-life record as a South Carolina state legislator, governor, and U.N. ambassador, Haley aims to bridge the deep political divide on abortion and start a constructive conversation to find a national consensus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbortion is a deeply personal topic for both women and men,\u201d she noted. \u201cI understand why. Someone\u2019s body and someone else\u2019s life are not things to be taken lightly, and they should not be politicized. The issue should be addressed with sensitivity and respect, not judgment and hate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since the Supreme Court\u2019s June 2022 ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization that abortion is not a constitutional right, the matter has continued to spark national debate, protests, and in some cases, violence, and criminal activity.<\/p>\n<p>For example, last month, a New York pregnancy center that was severely damaged in an arson attack last June was vandalized again with pro-abortion graffiti.<\/p>\n<p>Haley believes that pro-life politicians need to be more vocal in their condemnation of such attacks, as should President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Biden has done nothing to discourage it,\u201d she asserted. \u201cIn fact, he promotes it. That\u2019s not leadership. It\u2019s more partisanship of the worst kind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And the media, she noted, is no better.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s be honest: Most in the media prioritize demonization,\u201d she said. \u201cThey stoke division, pitting Americans against each other. No one talks about finding consensus. Everyone goes to the barricades and attacks the other side. They\u2019ve turned a sensitive issue that has long divided people into a kind of \u2018gotcha\u2019 bidding war.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Haley believes that the Supreme Court was right in its decision to return the decision-making on abortion back to the states. She emphasized that the nation needs to come together and find a way to respect each other&#8217;s opinions and beliefs on this sensitive issue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former South Carolina Gov.
