Gates, who has written fondly about her Catholic upbringing, said last week she is giving multimillion-dollar donations to abortion-supporting groups. Among the richest people in the world, she reportedly has a net worth of about $11 billion. Read more......

The sexual revolution is generally targeted as abortion’s source. While it played a huge role in abortion gaining a foothold, the esteem abortion has today required a lot more than the offerings of the radical ’60s. During the Roe years, while pro-lifers chipped away at the Supreme Court decision legally, the pro-abortion side fought a different front: the side of culture.

A recent Scientific American article echoes the false idea that pro-life laws harm women and that scientific fact backs this up. However, Scientific American's arguments rest on shaky ground — not scientific evidence. The main source of the author's claims is the flawed data of the Turnaway Study, which has been discredited numerous times by Live Action and other reputable organizations.

On January 30, a federal jury convicted six defendants of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE Act).

Several dozen pro-abortion activists marched to Alaska's Governor's Mansion in Juneau to demand that Gov. Mike Dunleavy take down a pro-life flag that he flies next to the U.S. and Alaska flags. Chanting, "Our rights, our choice," the protesters snaked through the State Capital – whooping and screaming as pedestrians looked on. One marcher, dressed in Game of Thrones's styled battle garb, wielded a large metal sword, which she jabbed into the air while joining the cacophony of voices railiing against any effort to protect unborn babies from abortion.
