WASHINGTON—Today, National Right to Life (NRLC) mourns the passing of Congresswoman Jackie Walorski (R-Ind.) from a tragic car accident.

“We mourn the loss of Representative Jackie Walorski who supported protections for the most vulnerable among us,” said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. “The pro-life movement is deeply indebted to Congresswoman Walorski for her service on behalf of the unborn.”

Congresswoman Walorski had a 100% voting record with National Right to Life.

Tobias continued, “Our thoughts and prayers are with the congresswoman’s family at this time.”

Founded in 1968, the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), the federation of affiliates in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia and more than 3,000 local chapters, is the nation’s oldest and largest grassroots pro-life organization. Recognized as the flagship of the pro-life movement, National Right to Life works through legislation and education to protect innocent human life from abortion, infanticide, assisted suicide and euthanasia.
