We posed this question to our followers on social media: You’re hanging out with a pro-choice friend who doesn’t know you’re pro-life. She says “I can’t believe these attacks on reproductive rights. My daughters are going to have fewer rights than I had.” How do you respond? Here are a few of the top responses, […]
This Wednesday, October 18, Students for Life Action is organizing the “Expose Late-Term Abortion Day of Action” in 23 locations nationwide. Although the abortion industry likes to pretend that late-term abortions are rare, or even completely made up, the truth is that Centers for Disease Control records tens of thousands of second- and third-trimester abortions […]
We asked our followers on social media: “For those of you who used to be pro-choice, what advice do you have on how to talk to pro-choice people about abortion? What did you find persuasive or off-putting when you were still pro-choice?” Here are a few of the top responses (lightly edited for clarity). Nelson […]
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is seeking public comment on proposed rules to implement the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.

We asked our followers on social media: “Question from a commenter specifically for atheists & agnostics (whether pro-life or pro-choice, doesn’t matter). IF you believe humans warrant more consideration/protection/resources/defense than other species, why?” Mind that IF; we know that the secular, pro-life, and animal rights movements sometimes overlap! But the attitude toward human exceptionalism among […]
We all heard the sky-is-falling takes after Dobbs was announced: Pregnant people won’t be able to access life-saving care! Women will be dying in the streets! Doctors will be jailed for trying to save their patients! If you’re happy about the Supreme Court’s decision, you’re a monster! Inconveniently for the abortion industry narrative, the assumption […]
We asked our followers on social media: “If people had to pass a quiz on abortion before voting on abortion-related measures, what questions would you want the quiz to include?” Here are a few of the top responses, lightly edited for clarity. Aleah K.: “The exact procedures by trimester. The frequency of abortions at each […]

In vitro fertilization often involves the creation of more embryos than the genetic parents intend to gestate and birth. Embryo adoption is the process of receiving a genetically unrelated “extra” embryo who was created for in vitro fertilization, and giving that embryo the chance to implant in the adoptive mother’s uterus. Absent such adoption, these […]
