A man who knows the price of standing up for what he believes wants to bring those beliefs to Congress.
Mark Houck, who was arrested by the FBI after an incident outside of an abortion clinic but later cleared of federal charges by a jury, is running for Pennsylvania’s 1st Congressional District
“I have seen first-hand what an out-of-control government can do to its citizens,” Houck said on his campaign website. “I will fight to protect all people and their rights under God & our Constitution. My platform is based on common sense.”

The site quoted the Book of Esther: “For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance … will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your … position for such a time as this?”

Houck explained his staunchly pro-life views on the site, writing, “I believe as we look at the vastness of the universe & try to find life, we must also recognize how rare life is in the universe & therefore we must defend all human life at all stages of development.”
In January, Houck was acquitted of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, according to the Catholic News Agency.
The case involved Houck shoving an abortion clinic worker.
