March for Life Unveils 2024 Theme: “Pro-Life: With Every Woman, For Every Child”, by Theresa Olohan

By Theresa Olohan, LifeNews - Today, the March for Life Education and Defense Fund announced the theme for the 51st annual March for Life – “Pro-Life: With Every Woman, For Every Child.”... Since Roe v. Wade was first enacted, over 65 million lives have been lost to the horrors of abortion... Tragically, polling shows that many of these lives could have been saved if more women were aware of the vast network of pro-life resources across the nation that have lovingly supported women and children for over 50 years.

By the Time Abortion Makes the Ballot, the Battle’s Over, by Daniel McCarthy

By Daniel McCarthy, Patriot Post - "To defeat abortion at the ballot box, pro-lifers ought to begin by getting more Americans to go to church."... Those who attend church weekly identify as pro-life 66-28... Even those who attend less regularly, between weekly and monthly, favor the pro-life designation 56-41... Among those who seldom or never attend, however, the balance is reversed: they identify as pro-choice 64-31.

Speaker Mike Johnson Begins Role With Significant Pro-Life Funding Battle, by Lauretta Brown

By Lauretta Brown, EWTN News - In his first weeks as speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, R-La., faces the formidable task of uniting a deeply divided Republican caucus — and one immediate obstacle is an internal GOP struggle over inclusion of language in a funding bill that would bar the mailing of the abortion pill mifepristone... Tom McClusky, director of government affairs for Catholic Vote, told the Register that he did not see “a scenario where that language is pulled” from a measure to fund the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration, because he didn’t see Johnson backing down from defending the language.
