State Senator Romaine Quinn | Wisconsin State Legislature
In a recent GOP radio address, Senator Romaine Robert Quinn discussed the "Embrace Them Both" initiative, aimed at supporting new parents and their babies. Senator Quinn emphasized the importance of championing the sanctity of life and the miracle of pregnancy in Wisconsin.
One of the key proposals put forward by Senator Quinn is to expand the dependent tax exemption to include children before birth, with an increased amount of $1,000 for each child in a family. This move recognizes that expenses for families begin long before the birth of their child and aims to provide financial relief to expecting parents.
Additionally, Senator Quinn highlighted the need to support pregnant women in Wisconsin who are seeking resources for the well-being of their child. The initiative calls for state grants to pregnancy resource centers, which would help provide pre- and post-natal care, baby supplies, and counseling. These resources are especially important for those facing unexpected pregnancies, ensuring they receive the support and guidance they need.
Furthermore, the GOP initiative aims to address adoption costs, ensuring that cost is not a barrier for families willing to provide a loving home for a child. By defraying adoption expenses, the legislation seeks to promote adoption as a viable option for families and give children the opportunity to thrive in a nurturing environment.
Senator Quinn emphasized that these measures are aimed at assisting new families in providing for both the mother and baby. However, he also acknowledged that sometimes things can go wrong, and in such instances, Wisconsin law should be clear to physicians. The goal is to enable medical professionals to confidently work towards protecting both the life of the mother and the baby whenever possible.
It is important to note that these reasonable measures have already passed the State Senate, and Senator Quinn expressed hope that they will receive bipartisan support and be signed into law by Governor Evers. The initiative represents a step in the right direction to protect, uplift, and embrace life at all stages.
