Earlier this month, I wrote about Rep. Jeff Hoverson’s (R – District 3) effort to nullify Roe v. Wade with House Bill 1313. The bill will be heard in the House Human Services Committee tomorrow at 3:30pm.
If passed, those found guilty of performing abortions would be subject to the penalties of a Class AA felony— which carries a maximum of life in prison without parole. In other words, Rep. Hoverson and others are saying that it’s time for North Dakota to do its part in ending the holocaust of abortion— regardless of what the federal government says about it.
If you support HB 1313 and would like to see the states take a stand on this issue, then please consider submitting testimony here. Ask them to give this a Do Pass recommendation.
T. Arthur Mason is a native North Dakotan who has spent nearly all of his life in the Peace Garden State. As the third of four children in Western North Dakota, Mason grew to appreciate family and the outdoors. Some of his fondest memories are annual deer hunts with family and friends.
In his early teenage years, faith became a central part of T. Arthur Mason's life. He and the majority of his family attend church together on a weekly basis and find this a fulfilling aspect of their lives.
Through the influence of his father, T. Arthur Mason became intrigued with politics. As a boy, he attended political events with his father and enjoyed the friendships that resulted as a byproduct of those political associations. As Mason grew older, he became convinced that the quote often attributed to Thomas Jefferson was true, "That government is best which governs least."
Today, T. Arthur Mason enjoys time with his wife and children, an occasional hunt, and an increasingly active life on the political scene. This blog is the fulfillment of a dream to design a web site in the realm of politics and to advocate for the principles of Liberty and constitutionally limited government.
