State lawmakers approved a measure to roll back portions of a 2023 law criticized by pro-life advocates who said it prohibited crisis pregnancy centers from supporting women and families in the state. The measure barred pro-life organizations from advertising their services in a way that the state’s pro-abortion attorney general viewed as misleading. Providers accused of doing so faced fines of up to $10,000, though the law did not define “misleading.” The law also required licensed medical providers at pregnancy centers to supervise all services, even nonmedical information or counseling.

LD538 allows abortionists in Maine to anonymously send the abortion pill to women in other states. The law, similar to those recently passed in New York and Colorado, is designed to make it harder for states with pro-life protections to bring legal action against abortionists who mail the abortion pills into pro-life states. It strengthens the state’s existing abortionist shield law, as it carries the potential to make it more difficult for officials in those other states to pinpoint the abortionist responsible for breaking the law or injuring a patient by way of the abortion pill.

The Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration is promising a full agency review of the safety of chemical abortion drug mifepristone after a new study raised concerns about its effects. FDA Commissioner Marty Makary wrote a letter to pro-life Senator Josh Hawley (R., Mo.) informing him of the agency's plan to conduct a review of mifepristone. "As the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, I am committed to conducting a review of mifepristone and working with the professional career scientists at the Agency who review this data," Makary wrote.

The Trump administration's Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has rescinded a 2022 Biden directive that threatened to force emergency room physicians in pro-life states to perform abortions against their better medical judgment. "Led by Dr. Oz, the Trump administration has delivered another win for life and truth—stopping Biden's attack on emergency care for both pregnant moms and their unborn children," said Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of SBA Pro-Life America.

The recent dismissal of the ACLU's challenge to Kentucky's abortion laws is a significant victory for the pro-life movement in the commonwealth. More than a legal technicality, this outcome helps reaffirm the state's commitment to protecting unborn life and signals a broader trend in post-Roe America: states are regaining their constitutional authority to legislate on such deeply moral issues. With another court case behind them, pro-life advocates are empowered to turn more attention toward building a culture of life through education, support and policy. Read more......

New research from Ireland reveals that 12 percent of women who took the abortion pill between January 2019 and December 2022 required a visit to an emergency room due to complications. There were 29 incidents where "moderate harm" was reported for women undergoing abortions. Nearly 11 percent of women experienced sepsis, infection, hemorrhaging, or other serious or life-threatening adverse events within 45 days of taking the abortion pill. These studies show is that the abortion pill is likely more dangerous for women than they realize. Read more...  ...

A lot of people claim that abortion is just a religious issue or it’s Christians imposing their religion on other people. But we find that when it comes to abortion, it’s pro-choice who always want to bring up religion and they always want to run away from the scientific and philosophical case for the pro-life position. We will refute pro-choice distortions of the Bible and church history. Read more......

Gallup released the results of its annual survey on abortion. Overall, the news is good for pro-lifers. A range of survey questions indicate that there was actually a slight increase in pro-life sentiment in 2025. Overall, 43 percent of respondents identified as "pro-life," a two percentage point gain from last year's Gallup survey. There were also small gains in the percentage of people who thought abortion was "morally wrong" and the percentage of people who thought abortion should either be "illegal" or "legal in only a few circumstances."

The Montana Supreme Court has struck down three abortion regulations, drawing a sharp rebuke from the state's Republican governor, who accused the justices of rejecting modern medicine. In a 6-1 opinion, the Montana Supreme Court ruled that a law prohibiting abortions after 20 weeks gestation, a measure requiring pregnant women to have an ultrasound before undergoing an abortion and legislation requiring women to visit a doctor in-person before obtaining an abortion pill were unconstitutional. The laws were passed by the state's Republican-controlled legislature and signed into law by Montana's Republican Gov. Greg Gianforte in 2021. However, a lower court's preliminary injunction has put...

The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a challenge to a subpoena demanding information about donors to a network of pro-life pregnancy centers, as such organizations have become targets of pro-abortion politicians in recent years. In an orders list, the U.S. Supreme Court included First Choice Women's Resource v. Platkin, Att'y Gen. of N.J. as one of two cases granted a writ of certiorari. First Choice Women's Resource Centers is a network of pro-life pregnancy centers subjected to a subpoena from New Jersey's Democratic Attorney General Matthew Platkin seeking information about its donors.

Texas lawmakers increased funding this year for pregnancy centers, adoption agencies, and maternity homes to help families choose Life. The state budget includes $200 million for Pro-Life nonprofits, and officials also passed new legislation that will limit the ways bureaucrats sabotage the program. Although this is a big win, Pro-Life leaders still have a lot of work to do to crack down on mail-order abortion pills. These nonprofits give hope to mothers and fathers who might otherwise seek illegal or out-of-state abortions. Pregnancy centers offer free services like counseling, child care, diapers and formula, job skills training, adoption, housing placement assistance, parenting classes,...

The Ethics and Public Policy Center, led by conservative Catholic commentator Ryan T. Anderson, did a large study of insurance data from more than 865,000 women over a period of six years. Nearly 11 percent—around 94,000—experienced a harmful side effect, including infection, sepsis, and hemorrhaging. Anderson said the study is the "equivalent of a category 5 hurricane hitting the prevailing narrative of the abortion industry" and "reveals, based on real-world data, the shocking number of women who suffer serious medical consequences because of the abortion pill."

Heartbeat International’s Abortion Pill Rescue Network (APRN) has recorded over 7,000 lives saved since 2012 – a milestone the organization celebrates for women who regret beginning a chemical abortion. The network connects women who have taken mifepristone – the first of two pills used in a chemical abortion – with medical professionals prepared to administer a reversal protocol. If taken quickly enough, this procedure can often counteract the drug’s effects and allow the pregnancy to continue, the group explains. The announcement comes as the abortion pill faces growing scrutiny. Read more...  ...

The Supreme Court just delivered a game-changing win for the pro-life movement and for every state fighting to strip abortion providers of taxpayer funding. In Medina v. Planned Parenthood, the high Court ruled 6–3 that individual Medicaid recipients cannot sue states for removing Planned Parenthood from their Medicaid programs. This means states like South Carolina – that want to respect life and protect conscience rights – can now take Planned Parenthood out of their Medicaid networks without being hauled into court by third-party activists using patient proxies.
