Congressman Todd Akin: “It seems to be, first of all, from what I understand from doctors, it’s really rare. If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut the whole thing down.”
State Delegate Todd Gilbert: “Forcing women to have an ultrasound before an abortion is justified because they already made the decisions to be vaginally penetrated when they got pregnant”
Senate Candidate Tom Smith compares a pregnancy caused by rape to having a baby out of wedlock.
State Senator Glenn Grothman: “Women make less because ‘Money is more important for men’”
State Representative Alan Dick : “If I thought that the man’s signature was required… required, in order for a woman to have an abortion, I’d have a little more peace about it…”
State Representative Chuck Winder: “I would hope that when a woman goes in to a physician with a rape issue, that physician will indeed ask her about perhaps her marriage, was this pregnancy caused by normal relations in a marriage or was it truly caused by a rape. I assume that’s part of the counseling that goes on.”
State Senator Glenn Grothman: “In promoting those campaigns and materials, the board shall emphasize nonmarital parenthood as a contributing factor to child abuse and neglect.”
