OB-GYN Congressional candidate Kelly Morrison: We need OB-GYN in Congress [View all]

Minnesota State Senator is running for Dean Phillips Congressional seat

She is an OB-GYN and during a local interview mentioned that it is important to have an OB-GYN in Congress. Amon other qualifications.

The interviewer commented that there are already but they are anti abortion.

I checked and, yes, two Rs: one in the House - Texas Burgess, and KS Marshall in the Senate.

I wonder how strict they are. Can an OB-GYN really support a rape victim living with the result? Or keep carrying a dead fetus to term? Or jeopardizing the life of a woman? Or do nothings during an ectopic pregnancy?
