“Administrators will throw up roadblocks for pro-life clubs because they don’t want pro-life speech in schools, fearing that some may find it controversial,” Hawkins said in a press release. “Our petition will focus on an attempted ban on ‘political’ speech. Free speech rights you can’t use don’t exist. We are not going to forget about our students’ rights or ignore attempts to silence them, no matter how long it takes.”

“Now, we are grateful to the current administration for eliminating the remnants of this Biden-era abortion mandate by repealing it entirely. HHS’s decision will protect our former client and pharmacies around the country who are fully within their rights to decline to stock or dispense abortion drugs.”
Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys represent the National Institute of Family and Life Advocates and three Illinois pregnancy centers in the eight-year-old case National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Treto. After the attorneys asked HHS to investigate this matter, the agency sent a “notice of violation” to Illinois officials informing them that their state law violates the Weldon and Coats-Snowe Amendments. Those are federal conscience clauses that protect pro-life health care professionals from being forced to refer women for an abortion.
Cissie Graham Lynch offered the rally’s closing prayer: “Lord, as we leave this place today, we know there's a lot of work still to be done. So, Lord, as we go, give us the strength. Fill us with the courage. Give us the compassion. … May we stand with an unwavering conviction, and may we be a nation who stands before the world and says that we are a country that values all life, Lord, because You are the Giver and You are the Author of life. And we pray this in the powerful Name of Jesus. Amen.”
God’s Word isn’t silent or ambiguous on this issue. It speaks with one voice and speaks clearly and loudly: Human life is of immeasurable value. This is highlighted with an exclamation point at the cross when Jesus gave his life for us. Abortion, discarding embryos, and euthanasia say, “You will die for me” or “I will choose when and how I die.” The gospel says, “The Creator of the universe and the Lord of all creation left glory to come to this earth, lived a perfect life, and died in your place that you might be saved from slavery to sin and live with God forever.”
Conservative lawmakers recently unveiled a budget bill containing numerous pro-life policies with a full defund of Big Abortion organizations – including Planned Parenthood.
President Trump’s suggestion that Congressional Republicans be “a little flexible” on the Hyde amendment is just the latest backstep from the pro-life positions that once had people referring to him as “the most pro-life President in history.” The Hyde Amendment prohibits the use of federal funds for abortion and has been inserted into appropriations bills since 1976. Rep. Henry Hyde was the first to insert the language and the issue has been hotly contested ever since.
Earlier this week, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and I hosted a press conference on Capitol Hill alongside several other members of Congress and state attorneys general to draw attention to another form of deadly illegal drug trafficking — one that receives far less scrutiny. These attorneys general are asking the Trump administration for help in stopping the flow of an illegal drug into their states and in holding those responsible accountable, just as Maduro was held accountable. Instead of assistance, they are encountering federal resistance. In this case, the federal government is not stopping the trafficking; it is enabling it.
Is it a tough battle? Absolutely. “It’s always been uphill,” he concedes with the scars of someone who’s been in the battle for decades. “There have always been strong opponents. There’s always been a hundred times more financing on the other side than on ours. And yet, through prayer and persistence, we were able to reverse Roe v. Wade. So don’t get discouraged,” Donovan implored. “
When we consider the moral truth of the sanctity of human life in the womb — and the equally important right of citizens not to be forced to finance its destruction — we are reminded of the words of another president at a moment of national consequence who said: “Important principles may, and must, be inflexible.”
The law, signed by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis in April 2023, deemed any effort to dispense or recommend abortion pill reversals as “unprofessional conduct” and “subject to discipline in this state.” It affectively barred women who changed their mind during the beginning stages of a chemical abortion from obtaining medication to save the baby’s life. Such pills have a 64% to 68% success rate on saving of unborn babies’ lives.
Dr. Ingrid Skop, vice president and director of medical affairs for Charlotte Lozier Institute, says the FDA’s statistics are often inaccurate because women often go to an emergency room rather than return to the abortionist. Charlotte Lozier Institute’s study on ER visits related to abortion pills found that in a five-year period, nearly 84% of those visits were miscoded as miscarriages. Skop, a practicing obstetric hospitalist, also says that in some studies, half or more of the women are lost to follow-up.
“The First Circuit correctly recognized that HHS is likely to prevail on the merits. Americans overwhelmingly oppose being forced to fund abortion, and this decision helps restore accountability and respect for long-standing federal law.”
Everywhere we look, we see it: Our culture is awash in violence and murder. We see it in movies and television programs. We see it in music and video games. And we see it in real time. Just imagine how different our world would be if we would obey this Commandment: “You shall not murder” (Exodus 20:13).
The sheer number of persons destroyed in the typical IVF process highlights the commodification of life, where babies are created only to be destroyed if they aren’t “good enough.” (But who defines “good enough”?) Christians must speak out against the intentional killing of babies, whether those babies are forming in the womb or in a petri dish. Each individual embryo is a person made in the image of God, fearfully and wonderfully knit together by him and deserving of life. They are not a commodity to be kept or discarded at the whim of the parents or a technician in a lab.
Pro-life billboards in West Kelowna, British Columbia, are scheduled to come down at the end of their contract following a fight with pro-abortion activists. The billboards—which state, “All lives are precious”—were purchased from B.C. Billboards by the Kelowna Right to Life Society and stand along Route 97, just 120 miles north of the American-Canadian border.
“I believe that Americans generally care about the health and well-being of women,” she said. “Unfortunately, the pro-life movement is up against the abortion lobby, which pours endless dollars into messaging campaigns designed to frame abortion as female empowerment. In reality, abortion dehumanizes and harms women and ultimately kills their children. It is vital that we continue speaking up and educating our neighbors about the truth of abortion.”
Both ADF and First Choice Executive Director Aimee Huber have pointed out that the state attorney’s general’s office seems to be attacking the centers because they’re pro-life. “Our state’s government has done everything they could to make New Jersey a sanctuary state for abortion,” said Huber. “Since pregnancy centers like ours do not perform or refer for abortion, we are targets for a government that disagrees with our views.”
“This simple and life-saving treatment gives unborn children a second chance at life and saves mothers from forever living with the consequences of an abortion. Thanks to the amazing work of the Abortion Pill Rescue Network and pregnancy resource centers, thousands of children are alive today who would not otherwise be,” Stockbauer said. “I pray that God will use the evil intentions of pro-abortion radicals for good, using their efforts to restrict abortion pill reversal as a means to inform even more women about its existence.”
In late September, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) quietly approved a generic version of the abortion drug mifepristone, inspiring outrage and drawing criticism from physicians and even Republican senators, who decried the move. The approval of a generic version of mifepristone, manufactured by Evita Solutions LLC, comes as the FDA is conducting a safety review of the brand-name mifepristone already available, Mifeprex.
This is a truly horrifying story. It highlights the heartlessness of those who view children, not as gifts from God, made in his very image and beloved by him, but rather as commodities to be had or discarded at the will of the parent. It’s the story of a family who named their baby Reid Owen Edwards—whose initials intentionally spell R.O.E. of Roe v. Wade fame—to honor the killing of the baby’s older sister by abortion!
“Poland has both the sovereign prerogative and the duty to protect all innocent human life. Poland’s Constitutional Tribunal acted courageously to protect children with disabilities from discrimination before birth—a goal fully consistent with international human rights law.”
New analysis in the UK by independent public health consultant Kevin Duffy has shown that many women who access abortion in their twenties will remain childless at 45 – a risk they are not told about.
Reproductive Health, Inclusive Care, Support and Empowerment (RISE) Collective describes itself as “one of only a handful of clinics in the country trained to provide abortion care in all trimesters.”
Kevin Duffy, the former director of pro-abortion organization MSI Reproductive Choices, conducted the analysis on the NHS report. Duffy, who abandoned the pro-abortion agenda and became a pro-life researcher, has repeatedly spoken on the dangers of the abortion pill. “From about 2015-2016, MSI began to emphasize a strategic push towards self-managed medical abortion, supplying abortion drugs through pharmacies.”
California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) announced Thursday that his administration will be allocating over $140 million in “state investments” to support “critical health care centers and access points to life-saving care and treatment for millions of Californians.” The beneficiary? Abortion behemoth Planned Parenthood.
The Pennsylvania House Judiciary Committee advanced seven radical abortion bills Wednesday that would protect, expand and fund the abortion industry. “These laws would make Pennsylvania one of the most extreme abortion states in the country overnight,” Lexi Sneller, a Policy Analyst with the Pennsylvania Family Council, told the Daily Citizen.
The letter — led by Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America and signed by groups including Family Research Council, National Right to Life, and the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission — warns that Democrats are attempting to make government funding for abortion coverage permanent by tying it to a continuing resolution to keep the government open.
Is killing a fertilized human egg murder? Absolutely. Life begins at the moment of fertilization. From that instant, a unique human being, created in God’s image, has begun his or her life. Size and stage of development do not determine life’s value. God does, and he values life from the very beginning.
“Out-of-state abortion drug peddlers are violating the criminal laws of Louisiana and other states across the country that choose life. They aren’t providing healthcare, they’re drug dealers,” Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill said.
What this film reveals isn’t just the darkness of abortion; it’s the spiritual confusion of a culture that no longer recognizes sin as sin. The devil’s work isn’t just in the clinic - it’s in the minds and hearts of those who call evil good and good evil. Christians must speak the truth with both conviction and compassion. We cannot let the language of grace be hijacked to justify sin. So yes, The Devil Is Busy.
Three years later, Americans are discovering that those strings were never truly severed. Washington still holds them tightly. Even though Dobbs recognized state authority, the federal government continues to pull the levers of abortion policy through appropriations, regulations, and executive action. The result: states may appear to act independently, but the real control still comes from Washington.
“I applaud my home state of Louisiana for filing this lawsuit to reinstate commonsense safety requirements that the Biden administration so callously and dangerously removed. The Trump administration should repeal approval of mifepristone altogether, but it should also swiftly adopt a policy that aligns with its declaration that abortion belongs under state jurisdiction.
