It has been a busy month for Senator Mike Lee! Not only did he join in a historic social media broadcast earlier this week, but he has tackled difficult and significant issues with important press releases. Here are some highlights:
Senator Lee on Abortion
At the end of January, Senator Lee introduced four bills to protect the rights of the unborn: Abortion is not Health Care Act, the Protecting Life in Health Savings Accounts Act, the Protecting Life in Foreign Assistance Act, and the Guaranteeing the Unborn Access to Respect and Dignity (GUARD) Act. Each of these bills were largely aimed at limiting federal spending going toward abortion costs in different contexts.
Senator Lee on Child Internet Safety:
Earlier this month, Senator Lee introduced the Preventing Rampant Online Technological Exploitation and Criminal Trafficking (PROTECT) Act. This act was presented in a senate hearing with several of the largest tech company’s CEO’s, including Meta (Facebook, Instagram) CEO, Mark Zuckerberg. Lee accused these major companies of not doing enough to prevent the uploading and viewing of underage pornography, as well as not preventing minors from being able to easily gain access to pornography themselves. The PROTECT Act would essentially require additional consent and verifications for those wishing to view or upload pornography.
Senator Lee on the Border Crisis:
Senator Lee attacked the current bill trying to alleviate the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border. He wrote a list of what he called, “The Dirty Dozen Secrets” of the currently proposed border act that he claimed would likely exacerbate the current crisis at the wall.
