The Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl this weekend thanks in part to Harrison Butker, who kicked a 27-yard field goal to put the Chiefs ahead of the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 in the last moments of the game. Butker is known as a strongly pro-life, devout Catholic.<\/p>\n

Last year, as Kansas prepared to vote on a pro-life amendment that ultimately failed<\/a> \u2014 the “Value Them Both Amendment” \u2014 Butker appeared in a Catholic Vote commercial<\/a> in support of the amendment. The amendment would have stated that the Kansas constitution does not secure a “right to abortion” or require government (taxpayer) funding of abortion. Instead, opponents deceptively (and successfully) painted the amendment as a ban on abortion.<\/p>\n

“This amendment will let Kansas decide what we do on abortion,” said Butker in the ad<\/a>.<\/p>\n
