The Fight for Life Is a Tug-of-War Across the Nation

Many of us never thought we would see Roe v. Wade overturned in our lifetime. We should rejoice that the Supreme Court finally declared that our Constitution does not include a “right to abortion.”
Yet, there is much work to do on both the state and federal levels to protect life, support women and babies, and change hearts and minds. The Democrats in Washington have repeatedly tried to pass laws enshrining unlimited abortion on demand at the federal level. Republicans have been successful in stopping these bills but are struggling to articulate a clear vision for life. At a minimum, the federal government must stop facilitating and funding abortion.
The Biden-Harris Administration has expanded abortion access in every way possible including allowing Veterans Administration hospitals to perform abortions and paying for abortion travel expenses for the military. A recent Government Accountability report found that nearly $2 billion in federal taxpayer funding has been funneled to big abortion providers between FY2019-FY2021.
Early voting for the 2024 elections starts in a month in some states. The right to life will be on the ballot everywhere — implicitly or explicitly.
