How pro-lifers and pro-choicers define abortion: results from SPL’s survey

July 24, 2025/in Dialogue strategy, Research, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Since conducting this survey, Herb Geraghty and I streamed an in-depth conversation about some of the survey results and what they mean for our public discourse. Get the replay link here: Replay: “Abortion Across the Aisle” Introduction There’s no single definition of “abortion.” We can define it in terms of ethics, law, or medicine, and […]

LIVESTREAM: personal stories & policy gaps around miscarriage

July 23, 2025/in Administrative, Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

[Reprinted from our email newsletter.] Hi All, Last week I emailed you about SPL’s proposed policy for hospitals to better support parents experiencing miscarriage.

Minnesota lawsuit argues coerced abortions violate parental rights

July 21, 2025/in Legislation, laws, & court cases, Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

Today’s article is a guest submission, and the author asked to remain anonymous.

The mothers are joined by two pregnancy resource centers, two physicians, and NIFLA. The claims were brought […]

July 18, 2025/in Abortion pills, Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Note: In this post I talk a lot about miscarriage and what happens to miscarried remains. If your history or heart aren’t up for that, you may want to skip this one.

Is belief in God necessary for the pro-life cause to succeed?

July 9, 2025/in Philosophy, Religion, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

A few months ago, the Human Life Review invited SPL to submit an essay responding to this prompt (emphasis added): In the decades between Roe v. Wade and Dobbs, most prolifers believed that Americans were more or less opposed to legalized abortion on demand because a) this was the case in 1973; b) it was […]
