Hoo boy. 2016. This year was a rough one for a lot of us, for a lot of reasons. January brought a snowstorm that prevented many people from attending the March for Life and caused the Students for Life of America east coast conference to be cancelled. Then, of course, we had a brutal election […]
The most-read articles on this blog for 2016 are… 10. The Canadian March for Life, Tomatoes, and Progress. Guest blogger Alan Trahan reports from the Canadian March for Life, where he carried his “We’re Here, We’re Queer, We’re Pro-Life” sign. He says: “It was an amazing crowd, with an opening address by an Algonquin elder […]
Drum roll please… click to enlarge… our most liked and shared graphics of 2016 are… 10. This graphic we wish we could claim credit for, but belongs to our friends at the Life Matters Journal 9.

One of the most frustrating assertions from abortion-choice advocates are that pro-life advocates are “anti-science” or “don’t understand science,” which is why they are pro-life. The problem, apart from the fact that science is decidedly on the side of the pro-life advocate, is that abortion-choice arguments usually incorporate bad science. For a recent example, see […]

January 22, 2017 is the 44th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s disastrous Roe v. Wade decision. We will mark the occasion with two consecutive weekends of activism, including protest marches, fundraisers for mothers in need (featuring karaoke!), and training for student pro-life leaders. We’ll be in San Francisco on the weekend of January 21 and […]
Two months ago I wrote the post “No, most late-term abortions are not medically necessary,” in which I used Guttmacher data to show that at least 75% of 13+ week abortions are elective (that is, they are not performed due to fetal or maternal health concerns). I said: One could argue that the proportion of […]
Ohio’s heartbeat bill—which prohibited abortions on any unborn human individual with a detectable heartbeat—was vetoed by Governor Kasich. He exercised the veto not on pro-abortion grounds, but out of concern that the legislation would be tied up in court and never go into effect. You’re all having fun debating the wisdom of that decision on […]
[Today’s guest post by Perri is part of our paid blogging program.] A common argument made by pro-choice advocates is that women who did not choose to get pregnant or to have unprotected sex should not have to carry a child to term because they did not choose to take on the responsibility of motherhood.

The final U.S. Senate race has concluded, with John Kennedy (R) prevailing over Foster Campbell (D) to give the GOP a slim 52-48 majority in the Senate. The GOP will also enjoy a solid majority in the House of Representatives. As we previously reported, both Kennedy and Campbell campaigned on pro-life platforms. Louisiana is a […]
