On the Issues

See Joe Soloski's stance on the issues.

Abortion

I believe that government should not be either promoting or prohibiting abortion. That decision is best left between a woman and her doctor; between a woman and her God. One of my opponents wants a total abortion ban implemented. Such a ban will never
