Taney and Stone County elected officials have been giving their reactions over the Supreme Court’s actions overturning Roe v. Wade, and how the state of Missouri immediately banned the procedure within the state.
Area representatives from the federal to the local levels praised the court’s decision.
““I have always believed that the best place to deal with this issue is at the state level,” Sen. Roy Blunt said in a written statement to Branson Tri-Lakes News. “I have supported and advocated for policies like the Hyde Amendment and the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act that are backed by a majority of Americans. I have also supported exceptions for victims of rape or incest, and situations where the mother’s life is in danger.”
