Republican candidate for Governor Sarah Steelman also called for legislation that would protect pharmacists from having to fill prescriptions (like the morning after pill) that go against their beliefs. She also wants to ban all abortions performed for reasons of "sex selection, genetic deformity or potential disability." Steelman announced her support for a constitutional amendment banning assisted suicide and euthanasia. She also pledged to appoint "constructionist" judges that "should enforce the laws, not write them."

After looking at Hulshof and Steelman's records, Steelman really comes out on the top as far as who votes more in favor of the Constitution. And when it comes to life and protecting it, I believe that Steelman has a better position. Hulshof wanting to support a cord blood bank really creeps me out to be honest. There are banks in other states that takes the blood of infants and uses it for genetic testing without the parents consent, and I hope that Missouri does not become such a state.
