Tracey Mann was elected to the 117th Congress of the U.S. House of Representatives and serves the “Big First” District of Kansas. Congressman Mann is a tireless advocate for Kansas agriculture and conservative Kansas values.
Congressman Mann is a fifth generation Kansan, who was born and raised on his family farm just south of Quinter. He is also the fifth generation to live in the family farmhouse that his great-great-grandfather ordered from Montgomery Ward catalogue in the early 1900’s. Growing up in production agriculture Congressman Mann learned the value of hard work at a young age as he spent thousands of hours in the fields and on the family feed yard. Some of his fondest memories of those days were working cattle with his with his grandfather, father, and brother on Saturday afternoons while listening to K-State football on the radio.
Every human life is precious, and every child is worthy of life and protection from harm. I firmly believe that life begins at conception, and unborn children should be afforded the same natural and God-given rights as all other living persons. I support community-based facilities like pro-life pregnancy centers that work tirelessly to provide quality care to both women and children. Through education, mentoring, and uplifting support centers like this help save lives by informing expecting mothers about alternatives to abortion, like adoption and foster care.
Devaluing the life of unborn children has desensitized America, and I believe it is time to stop using taxpayer dollars to fund abortion services and focus on life-saving resources that value the life of both the mother and the child. As a proud father and member of the Values Action Team, I will continue to stand up and fight for the life of every child.
