They are radically underrepresented in national politics. Elizabeth Dole is the only pro-life woman in the Senate that I can think of.is there a governor besides Palin who fits the category? The situation in the House is only a little better. The dearth of female pro-life politicians creates any number of political problems for pro-lifers. (That’s why the Susan B. Anthony List exists.) All else aside, I am glad to see a female pro-life politician reach prominence.
