CONGRESSMAN ROBERT ADERHOLT WINS PRO-FAMILY, PRO-LIFE AWARD

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville) has been recognized as a “True Blue” Member of Congress by FRC Action and Focus on the Family Action for his unwavering commitment to the family. 
 
The award honors Members of Congress who have exhibited extraordinary leadership and commitment to the defense of family, faith, and freedom, according to FRC Action’s scorecard covering House and Senate votes of the 110th Congress. Recipients of the award voted consistently for pro-life and pro-family issues.
 
FRC Action and Focus on the Family Action based this award on votes that include pro-family legislation, such as defending restrictions on funding international abortion groups, protection of abstinence programs and HIV/AIDs prevention, and other conservative family votes.

“The Members of the 110th Congress who received this award have been consistent, stalwart allies of American families,” said FRC Action President Tony Perkins.  “These Members are to be commended for supporting public policy that values human life, protects our religious liberties, and upholds the institutions of marriage and the family.”
 
Perkins continued, “I applaud these Members for defending pro-family and pro-life policies that have been under attack this past year. Values voters should be encouraged by these Members who have shown a commitment to protecting and strengthening the family.”

FRC Action is the Legislative Action Arm of the Family Research Council. Focus on the Family Action is a cultural action organization that aims to provide a platform for informing, inspiring and rallying those who care deeply about the family to greater involvement in the moral, cultural and political issues that threaten our nation.
