CORRECTION: This post previously referred to “Tuesday, November 2nd.” November 2nd is actually Wednesday. Sorry about that. Secular Pro-Life president Kelsey Hazzard here. With both major-party candidates sporting negative approval ratings, with people unfriending each other on social media over politics, and with voters wondering out loud which candidate has the least bad record on […]

She lives in Wrocław and is 25 years old.] It is a popular myth of our times that free access to abortion reflects society’s high level of cultural development. Another widely adopted view holds that we – as human civilization – gradually struggle towards greater equality […]

On September 30, our #HelloHyde campaign celebrated the fortieth anniversary of the Hyde Amendment, which has saved the lives of over 2 million children born through the Medicaid program. We educated tens of thousands of people about the life-saving power of the Hyde Amendment and highlighted the faces and stories of […]
Pro-life, pro-woman advocates have long cited Chile as a model country. Since 1989, Chilean babies have been protected by law from conception. Instead of treating abortion as synonymous with women’s rights, Chile invested in women’s access to education and health care. As a result, Chile’s restoration of the right to life corresponded with significant improvements […]
CORRECTION 10/17/16: The study we referenced below is specifically comparing elective single embryo transfer (eSET) to transfer of multiple embryos. eSET involves creating multiple embryos, using certain criteria to choose the embryo most likely to be viable, and transferring just that embryo to the mother. This process is in contrast with non-elective single embryo transfer, when […]
