We have a disturbing update in the case of baby Gabriel…  Baby Gabriel was diagnosed before birth with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, a serious but treatable heart defect. His biological parents sought an abortion, but his surrogate mother, McKenna West, refused. Gabriel was eventually born prematurely in Texas and received intensive medical care.  Now, the Texas Supreme Court ha...

Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin is suing to tear down two laws protecting women: one requiring that only doctors perform abortions, and another requiring a 24-hour waiting period. They want the court to invent a state right to abortion. Think about that. No doctor required. No waiting period, meaning no time to consider alternatives. This from an industry whose pill leaves about 11 percent of wome...

Missouri’s pro-lifers have a fight on their hands, and an opportunity to save babies.  A new YouGov poll of over nine hundred likely Missouri voters, conducted with Saint Louis University, has Amendment Three down just one point: forty-three percent in favor, forty-four opposed, thirteen undecided.  The amendment would strip the so-called right to abortion out of Missouri’s c...

A federal report just confirmed what pro-lifers have warned about for fifteen years: Obamacare is subsidizing abortion. The Government Accountability Office found that 1,719 Obamacare health plans cover elective abortion, reaching 4.4 million Americans. That’s 683 more abortion-covering plans than in 2014, leaving pro-life families with fewer and fewer ways to avoid them. President Obama pro...

A major abortion-pill case is now before the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. Louisiana is challenging the FDA’s decision to remove the requirement that mifepristone be dispensed in person, allowing abortion drugs to be prescribed remotely and mailed directly to women.  Louisiana argues that this policy undermines the state’s ability to enforce its own pro-life laws. The case is especially sig...

The abortion pill is being taken far beyond the limits for which it was approved—and the consequences can be horrific. A recent report details cases of women obtaining abortion drugs online and taking them well into the second and even third trimester. One recent North Carolina case involved a woman who allegedly took the drugs at 31 weeks. Her baby was born alive and was found in a toilet. T...

There’s encouraging news out of Idaho. A federal appeals court has ruled that Idaho can fully enforce its pro-life abortion ban while a legal challenge moves forward. The Ninth Circuit put a hold on a lower-court decision that would have created a broader exception allowing abortions when a pregnancy threatened a woman’s health—not merely when necessary to save her life.  This is an impo...

Canada’s culture of death is reaching a horrifying new frontier. The Quebec College of Physicians has reiterated that euthanasia could be an “appropriate treatment” for newborn babies suffering from severe disabilities, serious syndromes, or extreme pain that cannot be relieved. While euthanasia of newborns is not currently legal in Canada, the proposal has already been presented in Parliament.&#1...

The nation was shocked and appalled when Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey signed H. 5595, the radical bill which removed all limitations on abortion and cleared the path for abortion until birth.  As the governor signed the legislation the group of women in the room with her clapped and cheered at the opportunity to kill full term babies.   Now pro-lifers...

Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway is taking a stand for mothers and unborn children. Her office is promoting a statewide television and radio campaign warning Missourians about the consequences of Missouri’s current abortion laws, while supporting Amendment 3, which would restore legal protections for unborn babies.  Under the 2024 constitutional amendment, dozens of pro-l...

A new report shows Planned Parenthood gave Democrat attorneys general a roadmap for targeting pro-lifers after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. The 2022 memo urged state officials to attack crisis pregnancy centers, accuse them of spreading “misinformation,” use consumer alerts, pursue legal action, and even involve state laws designed to protect abortion facilities.  According to documen...

An Instagram post recently went viral, portraying the abortion of an unborn child as a cheerful “cancellation” announcement. The AI-generated graphic featured baby shoes, alphabet blocks spelling “BABY,” and an ultrasound image, with the message, “Baby Cancelled.” It received more than 121,000 likes and 8,400 comments, with many people celebrating the supposed abortion.  But there was a twist: the...

America has an opportunity to lead the world in defending the dignity of every human life.  The United States is once again taking the lead in the Geneva Consensus Declaration, an international coalition promoting a pro-life, pro-family approach to public health. It expressly affirms that “there is no international right to abortion, nor any international obligation on the part of States to financ...

An estimated 66 million unborn children have been killed by abortion in America since Roe v. Wade. On September 12, pro-life Americans will gather across the country for the National Day of Remembrance for Aborted Children, holding prayer vigils and remembering those whose lives were taken.  That remembrance matters because these children are more than a statistic. Each one was a unique human bein...

Here’s a disturbing legal contradiction in New Hampshire. William Kelly was sentenced to 80 years in prison after being convicted of murdering his girlfriend and her unborn child. The baby was between 35 and 37 weeks old. Under New Hampshire law, that unborn child was legally recognized as a victim of murder.  And that raises an obvious question: if an unborn child is a victim when someone else ki...

More than 140 doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals in Yorkshire are warning that Britain’s proposed assisted suicide legislation is unsafe.   These medical professionals say the NHS is already under immense pressure, while access to palliative and social care remains deeply unequal—especially for rural patients, people with dementia, and vulnerable communities.   Their message is si...

The fight surrounding Missouri’s Amendment 3 is heating up as out of state billionaire, and pro-abortion advocate, Michael Bloomberg gave $1.25 million to the “Stop the Ban” campaign.   Missouri was the first state in the country to enact their trigger laws protecting unborn babies in the wake of the Dobbs decision. It was not long after that out of state money poured in and put abortion in the st...

Operation Rescue has investigated 24 separate abortion emergencies at facilities in Colorado since January of 2025. According to their reporting, a staggering thirteen of these emergencies all took place at the same Planned Parenthood in Fort Collins.   Some women were rushed to the emergency room via ambulance and were able to be treated for their injuries. Other women, like 18-year-old Lexi Argu...

A new report from the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute confirms that many women are traveling across state lines or obtaining abortion pills through telehealth to bypass pro-life laws. Some commentators claim this proves pro-life legislation doesn't work. But that's not what the broader evidence shows. Research on birth data continues to indicate that laws protecting unborn children are saving th...

Abdul Mboob agreed to a plea deal and was sentenced to 34 years in prison for the murder of his pregnant wife, Anastasia Paul. Court records show that Abdul called police and told them that he had strangled her.   He was charged with murder, first-degree strangulation, tampering with physical evidence, and more. He eventually pleaded guilty to murder and risk of injury to a child.  In this horrifi...

A tragic story from India reminds us that abortion doesn't just end the life of an unborn child—it can also claim the life of the mother. A 35-year-old woman reportedly died after undergoing a sex-selective abortion following a prenatal test that revealed she was carrying a baby girl. The family feared that another baby girl would make their financial situation worse.   According to reports, she s...

A new survey conducted by Concerned Women for America shows the American people are beginning to understand the terrible dangers of the chemical abortion pill.   Roughly 70% of respondents said they support ending the mail order distribution of mifepristone, a number that is no doubt reflective of pro-life educational efforts to inform the public of its dangers.    These drugs kill innocent childr...

Planned Parenthood has spent years trying to distance itself from its founder, Margaret Sanger, but history cannot simply be rewritten. In a recent interview, Planned Parenthood President Alexis McGill Johnson discussed Sanger's legacy with a Black influencer.   Throughout the interview, she attempted to minimize Sanger's embrace of eugenics and even said that Sanger's intentions were good! She al...

Is chemical abortion in your water? It is a serious question that deserves serious answers.  Now, a new peer-reviewed study reports detecting biological activity consistent with mifepristone, the deadly chemical abortion drug, in environmental and municipal water samples from three U.S. cities.   Researchers found anti-progesterone activity in both untreated and treated water.  For years pro-lifer...

For years, pro-life Americans have been told that protecting unborn children requires passing more laws. But sometimes the first step is simply enforcing the laws we already have.   Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche recently pledged that, if confirmed, he would enforce federal laws protecting unborn children, including the Comstock Act. That matters because laws mean very little if government...
