The 2014 scorecard evaluates the votes of State Senators and Representatives on 6 separate pieces of pro-life legislation.
Benjamin Clapper, Executive Director or Louisiana Right to Life, said the following about the scorecards,
"Louisiana is the #1 pro-life state in the nation because our state legislators listen to the people of Louisiana and pass laws that embody their pro-life values. It is amazing that an overwhelming 83% of our legislators had a 100% pro-life rating in 2014. Louisiana Right to Life thanks our legislators for bringing us one step closer to a pro-life future."
