WASHINGTON (January 24, 2025) – Congressman Clay Higgins (R-LA) voted to pass H.R. 26, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which would require appropriate medical care for children who survive abortion procedures. The bill would also impose strong criminal penalties for failure to provide care and protect women whose abortions have been performed from prosecution.

“I support life from natural conception to natural death,” said Congressman Higgins. “My voting record of over 8 years is 100% pro-life, and fighting to protect the unborn from the horrors of abortion will remain a priority of my office.” 

Congressman Higgins is an original co-sponsor of H.R. 26, the Born Alive-Abortion Survivors Protection Act.
