Troy, from the year two thousand until he ran for the house seat in twenty thirteen, twenty fourteen was very anti choice. He was for a bill that would not allow abortions when the mother's life was at risk.

Why we checked itSpecific claim about Troy's legislative positions and timeline on abortion, including support for a bill that denied abortion even to save the mother's life — verifiable against voting records and public statements
What we foundTroy Jackson's anti-abortion record from roughly 2000 to 2013–2014 is well-documented across multiple outlets, and his 2010 candidate questionnaire responses show he left unchecked the option to allow abortion to protect the mother's health; however, the precise characterization that he supported a specific 'bill' barring abortion when the mother's life was at risk is only partially documented — the evidence is clearest for his questionnaire positions rather than a specific named bill.
