Gingrich clarifies: Life begins at conception

Gingrich was quick to set his pro-life record straight this afternoon, after pro-life activists raised questions about his explanation to ABC’s Jake Tapper that he believed that “life began at implantation.”

Gingrich did not explain his statement to Tapper, but the campaign sent out the following statement from Gingrich:

As I have stated many times throughout the course of my public life, I believe that human life begins at conception. I believe that every unborn life is precious, no matter how conceived. I also believe that we should work for the day when there will be no abortions for any reason, and that every unborn child will be welcomed into life and protected by law.
