U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. (R-LA), who serves as chair of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee, has received an A+ rating from Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America’s 2025 National Pro-Life Scorecard. The scorecard recognizes members of Congress for their actions in support of anti-abortion policies.
“As a doctor, caring for a pregnant mother means caring for two patients,” said Dr. Cassidy. “I’ve worked hard with my Republican colleagues to stop taxpayer-funded abortions, protect women from dangerous abortion drugs, and uphold the pro-life values that Louisianans share.”
“Proud to receive this recognition and will continue working to protect mothers and unborn children,” continued Dr. Cassidy.
Cassidy recently led a hearing as HELP Committee Chairman with Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill on issues related to chemical abortions and their impact on women and unborn children. He is also leading efforts among conservative Republicans urging Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary to complete a safety review of abortion drugs.
Other recent actions by Cassidy include joining over 140 Republican lawmakers in encouraging the Trump administration to reinstate pro-life policies, raising concerns about taxpayer dollars funding abortions overseas, questioning alleged coercion of students regarding union dues at Stanford University, demanding answers about school officials in Fairfax County allegedly pressuring children into abortions, and introducing legislation with Senator Lankford aimed at protecting medical residents from being required to participate in abortion training.
