WASHINGTON D.C. — In an interview with former Arkansas Governor, Mike Huckabee, on the Trinity Broadcasting Network, Congressman French Hill (AR-02) discussed his legislation, H.RES.49, in support of religious liberty for Coptic Christians in Egypt. Congressman Hill also discussed his support for H.R. 962, the Born-Alive Survivors Protection Act, legislation he cosponsored to protect innocent babies who are born alive after a failed abortion.
Congressman Hill stated, “Down through Egypt in the rural areas, Coptic Christians are still treated with great harm and discrimination. I want to see those crimes punished. I’d like to see [Egyptian President el-Sisi] do the right thing at the top, but also make sure it carries out through the whole country.”
Congressman Hill also argued, “Americans were repulsed by the recently passed statutes in New York and Virginia…. [W]e’ve introduced legislation saying that a baby born alive, as a result of a botched abortion, gets the same care and treatment as any other baby. What we’ve seen as a result is a national conversation expressing outrage that it would be any other way.”
