A coalition of pro-life organizations led by the National Right to Life Committee has released an open letter urging legislators “to reject any measure that seeks to criminalize women who have abortions.” Secular Pro-Life is one of the signatories. Citing various studies showing that abortion can have a negative impact on mothers’ mental health, the […]
Roe is on the rocks. If the draft majority opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson obtained by Politico holds, the landmark ruling declaring there to be a constitutional right to elective abortion will be, as former Vice President Mike Pence once put it, thrown in “the ash heap of history.” Ignoring the reality that there is […]

Modeled on startup incubators in the for-profit world, the program “supports and guides college-aged and recent post-graduate leaders through the development of a big idea that will impact and shape the pro-life movement.

Abortion supporters in Congress are incensed that the Supreme Court may soon allow states to set their own abortion regulations, such as protecting babies in the second and third trimesters. Their solution: H.R. 3755 (the so-called “Women’s Health Protection Act”), an abortion industry wish list. Thankfully, it failed in the Senate on a 49-51 vote. […]
In his book The Fake and Deceptive Science Behind Roe v. Wade (New York: Beaufort Books, 2020), Dr. Thomas Hilgers looked at the number of abortions since Roe and also looked at data on the number of people working in different professions. From this, he calculated the number of aborted babies who would have gone […]
Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU) has announced a $25,000 reward for information that leads the conviction of late-term abortionist Cesare Santangelo. Last month, PAAU activists recovered the remains of 115 abortion victims from Santangelo’s Washington, D.C. abortion center. Five of them appear to have been old enough to survive outside the womb. One baby girl bore […]

In case you’ve been living under a rock, Politico leaked a draft of the Supreme Court opinion that will overturn Roe v. Wade. (Don’t have time to read the whole thing? Here’s a good summary.) The final version is expected this summer. The opinion rejects Roe as “egregiously wrong from the start,” because it was […]
Earlier this year, researchers at NYU published the results of a survey about Americans’ attitudes toward abortion, and took a unique approach. Gallup, Pew, and other large pollsters routinely about opposition to abortion under particular circumstances (rape, third trimester, etc.). Those surveys can certainly be helpful to understanding year-to-year trends. But I have never seen […]
We asked our followers on social media: “If you used to be pro-choice and you’re now pro-life, what changed your mind?” Here are a few of our favorite responses. Linda K.: An ultrasound with my third pregnancy, two days before I had a miscarriage at eight weeks. I heard her heartbeat and grieved that loss, […]
