In her June 2021 Report from Concord, Louise Andrus writes that she has many times asked herself why we have so many laws and why we keep passing more and more laws. She states that it is her “belief that every time a law is passed, the law takes away someone’s rights.”

I am aware of her stated stance on being pro-life, a position with which I do not agree as I am pro-choice. So I don’t see how Ms. Andrus can make the above statement about laws in light of her support of laws that take away the right of a woman to make decisions regarding her own physical, emotional, and mental well-being. In my opinion, her statement about laws and her position on laws about pro-life do not agree and are in fact contradictory.
