House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) refused to answer on Thursday whether an unborn baby at 15 weeks old is a human, dodging the question under the guise of motherhood.
“Let me just say that I am a big supporter of Roe v. Wade. I’m the mother of five children in six years, I think I have some standing on this issue as to respecting a woman’s right to choose,” Pelosi answered a reporter on the question.

A “Barbaric” Response
Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz tweeted in response to Pelosi’s answer, “Barbaric. Speaker Pelosi refuses to say an unborn baby at 15 weeks is a human being.
“Science doesn’t matter to today’s radical Dems—it’s all politics.”

Life News added on Twitter, “Nancy Pelosi says being a mother makes her an expert on abortion. No, it just means her kids should be glad they weren’t aborted!”

Back in the Court
An upcoming Supreme Court case will address the 2018 Mississippi law that bans abortions after 15 weeks.
The Washington Examiner noted, “Pelosi and other high-ranking political figures are under new scrutiny over their pro-abortion rights views.”
It added, “The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has begun delving into whether it should allow President Joe Biden and other top national leaders who are Catholic to receive Holy Communion if they are also in favor of abortion. Pope Francis warned bishops this week against politically weaponizing Communion.”
The court will address the case, but Pelosi will still not answer the question. Her response to the pro-life issue is increasingly against science and the views of the majority of Americans.
