“I hold my pro-life beliefs firmly, and I support the full repeal of the death penalty. The costs, both financial and emotional, are too great, and there is no truly humane way to carry out such a punishment. I remain committed to championing efforts at the Statehouse that reflect these principles, including House Bill 72, which recognizes the inherent dignity and value of every human life at every stage.”
