I love Rep Chris Smith of New Jersey. I will never forget the night he stood in front of the Supreme Court after the March for Life with a broken foot listening for hours to the witnesses of the women of Silent No More.
Thank you Rep Smith, for listening to us and truly caring for all women and their babies!
