Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) is working with Christian groups to urge Republican officeholders and candidates to sign a “Declaration for Life” pledge focused on fighting legislation that would restrict abortion. Hawley announced the effort after hosting the first Missouri Prayer Breakfast, bringing together dozens of pastors at the Russell Senate Office Building.
The announcement centers on commitment to policy goals tied to abortion restrictions, with Hawley framing the pledge as a way for GOP leaders and contenders to align on those legislative priorities.
