Last weekend I had the great pleasure of participating in the Vita et Veritas (Life & Truth) pro-life conference at Yale University for the third year in a row. Joining me on the interfaith panel were Matt Bennett (Protestant), Cecily Routman (Jewish), and Suzy Ismail (Muslim). Enjoy!
Congresswoman Pelosi [Today’s guest post is by JoAnna Wahlund.] Maybe someone out there can explain this, because I am really confused. Nancy Pelosi held a weekly briefing on October 1. You can watch the video here. At one point, a CNS news reporter asked, “In reference to funding for Planned Parenthood: Is an unborn baby […]
A lot of people who support legal abortion object to the label “pro-abortion.” They tend to prefer the term “pro-choice,” claiming “pro-abortion” incorrectly implies they like abortion or would encourage people to get abortions. In reality plenty of people think abortion should be legal but consider it an inevitable tragedy or necessary evil. They are […]
Today is the 39th anniversary of the Hyde Amendment. First enacted on September 30, 1976, the Hyde Amendment prohibits the use of federal Medicaid dollars for medically unnecessary abortions, except in cases of rape and incest. The result? There are over a million young Americans alive today who would have died in the absence of […]
Planned Parenthood is asking its supporters to “turn the internet pink” today, using the hashtags #PinkOut and #StandWithPP.

[Today’s guest post is by Sean Cahill, a recent graduate of the University of Arizona College of Law. She says: “Because it changes the way my voice is heard when it comes to life issues, I feel compelled to state that I’m a woman, despite what my name suggests.”] When a man steals to satisfy […]
“Safe haven” is a catchall term for laws that allow mothers to surrender newborns to hospitals, police stations, and similar facilities without facing any liability or interrogation. Every state in the U.S. has a safe haven law. Slate published an article on the subject last week. At first, author Christina Cauterucci talks sense: From a harm […]
Scott Klusendorf, president of Life Training Institute, developed a tool to help us keep the conversation focused on what the unborn is. That tool is called Trot Out the Toddler. Essentially, if someone is talking about circumstances, such as poverty, while these circumstances are important to discuss, they are not the issues that affect the […]
Historically, January has been the most expensive month of the year for Secular Pro-Life. January is when we have the best opportunity to share our secular message and equip pro-lifers to reach people of any faith and no faith. January is the March for Life in Washington, D.C., the Walk for Life West Coast in […]
