Republican Leadership Council
The Republican Leadership Council has no stated position on abortion. It does seek to promote a "big tent" Republican Party that includes social conservatives and moderates. The primary purpose of Republican Leadership Council is to elect Republicans of all stripes to office.
The Republican Leadership Council should not be confused with the Republican Liberty Caucus: (both use the acronym RLC). The Republican Liberty Caucus is the "libertarian" wing of the Republican Party and seeks to elect pro-liberty candidates to office.
