The NRLC concluded a 2 day conference with dozens of workshops focusing on abortion-related legislation and litigation, euthanasia, preservation of the lives of babies with Down syndrome, and many other pro-life subjects.

Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas remarked that pro-choice (that is, pro-abortion) advocates “have been emboldened by the most pro-abortion White House in American history.” However, he also said the the pro-life movement has made great strides in recent years, passing laws in many states to shield the unborn from the worst abuses of the abortion industry.

He referred to the Roe v. Wade decision by the Supreme Court in 1973 as a moral and constitutional travesty. In previous posts I have provided information on the case involving the Mississippi law which is now before the Supreme Court. Pro-life factions hope the Court will substantially deal with issues in the context of 2021 values and modern science concerning the beginning of life, fetal viability, and the concept that a fetus is a person with a right to life. Pro-abortion factions are threatened with a limitation to their profits and are fighting viciously to keep abortion a first choice for women in distress with an unplanned and unwanted pregnancy.
