Representatives Chip Roy and Andy Biggs have urged Washington D.C. authorities, including Mayor Bowser and the MPD, to preserve the remains of five aborted babies, known as 'The Five,' amid concerns that the DOJ sought to dispose of them without proper investigation. The bodies, found at the Washington Surgi-Clinic in 2022, may be evidence of felony crimes, including violations of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act and the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act. Lawmakers, such as Senator Lankford, are calling for answers and have condemned the DOJ's demand to destroy the remains before an investigation. The DC Chief Medical Examiner has now decided not to immediately destroy the bodies, in what is seen as a victory by pro-life advocates and conservative lawmakers who are fighting for justice and accountability for the involved rogue actors.

It is appalling that the DOJ would demand the remains of five babies be destroyed before their deaths can be investigated. These five children—like all children—have value and worth. I’m calling for answers ⬇️ https://t.co/pwrdHf23Dg
