Anthony Pro-Life America, backed Graham.<\/p><p>\u201cI used to know Sen. Darline Graham through her brother, the great Senate pro-life champion and my good friend, Sen. Lindsey Graham. But now, I\u2019ve gotten to know her directly for who she is. Her pro-life values are passionate and deeply rooted in principle,\u201d Marjorie Dannenfelser, SBA\u2019s president, said in a <span><u>statement<\/u><\/span>. \u201cI urge all South Carolinians to vote for her.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/modernhomejournals.com\/?p=2718\">Nearly Half of Trump\u2019s Treasury Appointees Have Left<\/a><\/p><p>In a press release touting the support, Graham said she was \u201cproud to be the most pro-life candidate in this race.\u201d She bragged about the support in Tuesday\u2019s debate against Norman, saying she was \u201chonored and excited\u201d to be backed by the group.<\/p><p>SBA\u2019s endorsement was not surprising. The organization had a close relationship with Lindsey Graham and <span><u>had already committed<\/u><\/span> to deploying its grassroots to South Carolina as part of its <span><u>$80 million planned spending<\/u><\/span> this election cycle.<\/p>\n<p>Hawkins said that last week she spoke to staff from the National Right to Life Committee, another big anti-abortion group that often gets involved in political races, and told them about Graham\u2019s donation to Shealy. The NRLC told NOTUS that it planned to endorse in the race, but it did not reveal which candidate it would be backing nor say when it would be announced.<\/p><p>But previous donations tie Graham to abortion rights supporters.<\/p><p>She accepted a <span><u>$10,000 donation<\/u><\/span> from Denali Leadership PAC, a leadership PAC <span><u>affiliated<\/u><\/span> with Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), one of only two Republican senators who support abortion rights. In 2020, Graham <span><u>donated $100<\/u><\/span> to former Republican South Carolina state Sen. Katrina Shealy, who gained national attention in 2022 when she played a key role in <span><u>blocking a near-total abortion ban<\/u><\/span> from becoming law in the state.<\/p><p>The Daily Beast, which was the <span><u>first to report<\/u><\/span> the Shealy donation, said that shortly after the outlet reached out to Graham\u2019s campaign for comment on the story, her office <span><u>posted on X<\/u><\/span> that the senator was \u201cproud to be pro-life and to stand up for the unborn\u201d and endorsed seven anti-abortion bills in the Senate.<\/p><p>None of the bills she endorsed are abortion bans.<\/p><p>When asked about the post, Hawkins told NOTUS that Graham \u201cdidn\u2019t support the Life at Conception Act,\u201d a <span><u>bill<\/u><\/span> that would grant embryos personhood rights, effectively outlawing abortion. Hawkins added that SFLA had reached out to Graham about potentially having her be the lead Senate sponsor for the \u201cClean Water for All Life Act,\u201d a bill which would restrict access to abortion pills and has been <span><u>introduced in the House<\/u><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Graham\u2019s campaign declined to respond to NOTUS\u2019 detailed questions, including what her stances on abortion are and whether she agreed with Shealy. The former state senator <span><u>told The New York Times<\/u><\/span> that she and Graham are close friends but never spoke about politics, but Graham <span><u>told reporters<\/u><\/span> on Monday that they were not friends and said she was \u201cdefinitely pro-life.\u201d<\/p><p>The criticism over her record has seemingly gotten to Graham\u2019s campaign.<\/p><p>On Tuesday afternoon, Graham spokesperson Abby Zilch <span><u>posted on X<\/u><\/span> that Norman had donated $1,000 to former Democratic South Carolina state Rep. Leon Stavrinakis. In 2022, he voted against a six-week abortion ban in the state.<\/p><p>But Zilch did not mention that the <span><u>donation<\/u><\/span> was from 2015, when Stavrinakis was running for Charleston mayor in a nonpartisan election against another Democrat, John Tecklenburg. Tecklenburg, who was <span><u>backed by progressives<\/u><\/span>, ultimately won that race.<\/p><p>Norman and his campaign did not respond to NOTUS\u2019 requests for comment over text and email.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/modernhomejournals.com\/?p=2712\">Trump\u2019s Anti-Fraud Crusade Casts a Long Shadow Over Minnesota Governor\u2019s Race<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One anti-abortion leader told NOTUS she has \u201creal concerns\u201d that Graham will not be \u201ca pro-life fighter.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2724,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2725","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2026-election"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Anti-Abortion Movement Is Split Over Sen.
