This is the case not only in countries where abortion is illegal, but also in those where the practice is legal but the healthcare system either can not or does not want to provide accurate […]
I was moved by this Twitter thread from Nina Tame. I’m reprinting it here for your consideration. There is no room in the medical model for any neutrality around disability. It’s always a devastating tragedy. I’m an adult with Spina Bifida, a birth “defect.” I’m a horror show of a worse case scenario because I’m […]
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 […]

Monica Snyder, Executive Director of Secular Pro-Life, busts that stereotype in a two-part interview with “Know Why” Podcast. In this episode, Monica talks about Secular Pro-Life and uses her background in biology to discuss the beginning of human life and personhood. Ready for shattered […]

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is seeking public comment on proposed rules to implement the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act. Unfortunately, the proposed rule encompasses abortion — contrary to the intent of the pro-life members of Congress who sponsored and voted for the PWFA in good faith. To speak out against this injustice, you must […]
Once a month or so, the Secular Pro-Life blog features a short interview with a pro-life atheist. (See the full series of interviews here.) Although Secular Pro-Life is not exclusively for atheists, historically atheists have played a key role in the organization. As atheists become more prominent in the pro-life movement generally, we’re excited for the opportunity […]
Today’s guest article is by Hannah Langdon. Hannah is a recent college graduate working in pro-life grassroots efforts in Cincinnati. This Election Day, Ohio voters are asked to choose between life and death. Pro-abortion groups are trying to pass an amendment to Ohio’s constitution that would prohibit any burdens on “reproductive rights.” The amendment (Issue […]
Quick summary: Ohio’s Issue 1 would enshrine abortion into the Ohio state constitution. The most crucial volunteers fighting this are those helping with phone banks (which you can do no matter where you live) and those helping with door knocking/canvassing (which you can do if you live in or are able to travel to Ohio).
