The cost of adoption should be covered by corporations, according to former Vice President Mike Pence.

"If you're going to be pro-life, you need to be pro-adoption," the vice president said during a speech.

Several large corporations have offered to pay for travel for patients who live in states where abortion is not allowed after the Supreme Court last month overturned the longstanding policy.

The moral and legal failing of how expensive adoption has become and how difficult it is to navigate adoption services needs to be fixed by voters.

"I don't know if I will be here to see abortion banned in every state of the US," said the vice president.

The purpose of the speech was to give a vision for the future of the country. He urged the audience to support the Hyde Amendment, which prevents federal funding from paying for most abortions, and to oppose the availability of the abortion pill, which patients can access through the mail.

He urged supporters to double their commitment to care for expectant mothers, newborns, and young families.

The purpose of the speech was to encourage the audience to re-elect GOP lawmakers who are anti-abortion.

Speculation that he'll run for the presidency in 2024 is likely to be put to rest by the visit to South Carolina by the vice president. During the last year, Pence clashed with his former boss, Donald Trump, when he helped to support congressional and gubernatorial candidates.

It's possible that Trump and his former vice president could face each other in a crowded Republican primary if they run for president in 2024.

The vice president took a victory lap on his anti-abortion record, from when he was a congressman to when he was governor.

"Today at long last, it has been sent to the ash heap of history, where it belongs," he stated.

On Tuesday, the vice president returned to Capitol Hill for the first time since the inauguration.

Since the attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021, Pence has distanced himself from Trump, but on Wednesday he championed what he said was the most pro-life administration in American history.

As governor of Indiana, he signed a bill banning abortions on the basis of race, sex, and fetal disability, after sponsoring the first bill to block federal funding for abortion providers.

The Women's Health Protection Act, a bill that would allow abortion in all states, was the subject of a speech by the Vice President. The bill is supported by all of the Democrats in the Senate.

Republicans don't like it because it allows health exemptions to post-viability abortions. Voters should push back against Democrats.

"As we gather tonight," he said, "we must recognize that we have only just begun."
