Former Auburn Tigers head football coach Tommy Tuberville, a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate in 2020, is a proponent of the Alabama legislature’s actions on abortion. During an interview on “The Jeff Poor Show” on Huntsville’s WVNN on Wednesday, Tuberville voiced his approval.

“I’m all for that,” Tuberville said regarding the state of Alabama’s action on abortion. “I’m pro-life. The thing about it – there’s not just Alabama. There’s other states across the country making these tough decisions. And it’s really not a tough decision. It’s about life or death. We’ve killed 60 million babies in the last 45 years – 60 million. I mean, what the heck is going on? People need to open their eyes and just think a little bit about what we’re doing. We’re supposed to be a civilized country. We’re thinking sometimes that we’ve got all the answers. But we got too much government involvement.”

“What the state of Alabama did is they’re just trying to get it sent to the Supreme Court,” he continued. “Now, whether it will happen or not, I don’t know. But you know, we’ve got all kinds of new technology that’s been invented in the last 45 years. We’ve got things that I think change a lot of people’s minds about this if we just really looked at it. Is there a clear answer? Probably not right now. That’s the reason we’ve got people up in Washington, D.C. that we call the Supreme Court that makes those decisions. And I think after 45 years, and after 60 million deaths, that we could have prevented, that we send it back to them and let them rethink that. Let them rethink it and get to the point where they’ve got to make that tough decision because that’s what they get paid for.”
