Texas GOP Rep. Brian Babin called out Vice President Kamala Harris for leaving the word "life" out of her quote from the Declaration of Independence during a recent speech. 

"That's the number one thing that is listed by the Founding Fathers and for our vice president to leave that out is just incredible," Rep. Babin said on the Thursday edition of the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show.

"You know, they're so concerned about banning gas stoves but they've decided that all human beings don't deserve life and to be protected," he continued.

During a pro-abortion speech on the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, Vice President Harris drew backlash for omitting the right to "life" while quoting the Declaration of Independence.

"We collectively believe and know, America is a promise," Harris said in the speech. "It is a promise of freedom and liberty. Not just some, but for all. A promise we made in the Declaration of Independence, that we are each endowed with the right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Be clear, these rights were not bestowed upon us, they belong to us as Americans."

Rep. Babin also called out Democrats for not supporting bills that protect babies that survive a failed abortion. 

"We passed the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act and we only had one Democrat vote with us on that bill," he stated. "And this tells you where they stand. They just simply do not have a Judeo-Christian view of the world."
