House District 23 House District 23 (eastern 2/3 of McDowell county) elects one member. Clif Moore earned an F from Life Gauge. On February 24, 2010 he voted against a motion to discharge a committee, effectively killing a Constitutional Amendment that would stop state funding of abortions, and that would allow us to stop abortion when Roe v Wade is overturned. In 2006 he voted against a motion to dispense with committee reference, effectively killing a parental notification bill. He is a Democrat. The trajectory of Mr. Moore's rise to power is determined by the Speaker of the House, who uses this authority to convince delegates to vote as he wishes them to vote. West Virginia's unborn babies will receive no justice in such a political system. To break its power, the first step is to force politicians to choose: vote with the Speaker, or vote for what is right. Ask Delegate Gearheart in Bluefield to introduce the motion that forces Mr. Moore to vote. To write a letter to Mr. Gearheart, click here. |
