According to Gallup and related surveys, about 37 percent of young adults described themselves as pro-life in 2025. That represents an increase of roughly 8 to 11 percentage points compared with results from 2022 and 2023. At the same time, Gallup data show that the proportion of young Americans who believe abortion should be legal in all circumstances has dropped sharply—by an estimated 10 to 14 points.

Our culture tries to dehumanize these babies with rewordings and euphemisms. They call murder “terminating a pregnancy,” and they label unborn babies as “fetuses,” “embryos,” “globs of cells,” “uterine contents,” or “products of conception.” But the reality is that they are innocent children, made in the image of God, and they have every right to live. If you don’t agree with that then, frankly, you disagree with the Bible.

Support for abortion among Christian colleges in the United States has skyrocketed since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, according to a new report by Students for Life of America's Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement (IPA). IPA identified 725 Christian schools, defined as "an institution of higher education affiliated with a Christ-centered denomination and publicly claiming historical Christian faith in its founding," and combed through the colleges' websites for references to abortion found that one in seven is connected to the abortion industry.

Above all else, pro-lifers should be uncompromising in continually upping the pressure on the Trump administration around the abortion pill. The Biden administration’s decision during the pandemic to allow women to receive a prescription without meeting with a doctor in-person dramatically expanded access to abortion pills. Not only has that led to an uptick in abortions post-Dobbs, it has also produced horrifying cases of men mail-ordering abortion drugs and covertly administering them to wives or girlfriends. At a bare minimum, a nominally pro-life White House should restore the in-person requirement.

Center for Christian Virtue published an exit poll report that applied the principle to the moral and spiritual health of Ohio, titled "Vital Signs." The results are deeply concerning: Thirty percent of Ohioans who believe life begins at conception still voted for Issue One, to make abortion a "right in the state. One in three self-identified weekly churchgoing Catholics and Evangelicals supported the abortion amendment. These numbers make one thing clear: if the Church loses moral clarity on the issue of life, culture will follow. To rebuild a culture of life, the Church must first rebuild conviction.

Thirty percent of Americans believe abortion should be legal "under any circumstances," compared with 13 percent saying it should be illegal in all circumstances, as of May 2025. The majority of Americans, 55 percent, say it depends on the circumstances. At the same time, the public leans more toward viewing abortion as morally acceptable (49 percent) than morally wrong (40 percent) and toward self-identifying as pro-choice (51 percent) than pro-life (43 percent).

In our system of government, everything done ultimately originates from the people themselves. The Framers set up two political branches, the legislative and executive, to reflect this political philosophy of popular sovereignty and self-government. The judiciary, meanwhile, is meant to be a passive institution, the brakes on the vehicle of state. Modern history illustrates progressive-liberal jurists taking the wheel and putting the gas to the floor, driving us in a direction they feel is best, and thereby usurping the powers and functions of the other two branches, unbalancing the traditional constitutional order of our government.

When the FDA approved mifepristone twenty-five years ago, it did so with full awareness that the drug carried serious risks—risks significant enough to warrant a special safety program known as a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS). Yet reading recent headlines, one might think the abortion pill had achieved something close to sainthood. In late September, STAT News marked the anniversary by calling mifepristone a "hero" of modern abortion care—safer, they claimed, than Viagra or even pregnancy itself. Within days, The Guardian, NPR, PBS NewsHour, and Scientific American joined the chorus, publishing nearly interchangeable pieces that hailed the drug's "exceptional safety" and dismissed any dissent as "junk science" or "conservative backlash."

As medication become the most common method for abortion, pro-life advocates and centers across the country have had to adjust their strategies, aiming to reach women earlier in what has become a quicker and lonelier process. Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, said that 63 percent of abortions in America come through medication. While a medication abortion can seem simpler to women because it doesn't require travel or involve other people, it also leaves women to go through the loss alone, bleeding heavily and sometimes seeing the remains of their aborted fetus.

There is no through line between abortion and the death penalty. One kills innocent life. The other balances the eternal scales of justice. I am quite sure that this column will not sit well with the sort of Catholic who thinks that vengeance has no place in our hearts. Those readers, and those Catholics, are missing the point. Capital punishment is not vengeance. It is not even unconstitutional. It is the recognition that there are certain crimes that require the forfeiture of your life, in order to provide some balance to society.

Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago is facing mounting criticism from two prominent American bishops. Senator Dick Durbin, a long-serving Illinois Democrat with a record of supporting abortion legislation, is to receive a "Lifetime Achievement Award" from the Archdiocese of Chicago. The award, due to be presented at the annual Keep Hope Alive fundraiser for the archdiocese's immigration ministry, is intended to recognise Durbin's decades of advocacy for migrants. The senator, who is Catholic, has been one of the principal sponsors of immigration reform in the U.S. Congress. Yet the choice has provoked a strong reaction because of Durbin's longstanding support for abortion.

In response to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s update on the FDA's abortion drug safety review during his Senate Finance Committee hearing, Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser issued the following statement: "We are grateful that Secretary Kennedy confirmed the FDA's review of abortion drugs is now underway and look forward to his promised release of new data after years of the Biden Administration ignoring this urgent issue. Secretary Kennedy even revealed that Biden's FDA 'twisted' data to bury safety signals."

Neutrality is not harmless. It is permission. And in the case of abortion, it is the quiet consent to end human lives. Today, the pro-life movement stands at a similar moral crossroads, again. With lives on the line, taking a neutral stance is not only irresponsible, it is dangerous. We are called not merely to speak out, but to lead. This includes supporting and advancing laws that challenge the status quo, stir controversy, and confront injustice head-on. Since the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade, the battleground has shifted from federal courts to state legislatures, and we must take definitive, courageous action.

When the Supreme Court's landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health decision was released in June 2022, returning abortion law to state jurisdiction, pro-life activists knew what their greatest challenge would be in the post-Dobbs era: thwarting distribution of the abortion pill. That's because these life-destroying drugs now constitute nearly two-thirds of U.S. abortions — and because they can be distributed by mail even in states like Texas that passed near-total bans on abortion in the wake of Dobbs. Two years on, however, it's clear that the pro-life movement is continuing to lose ground due to the ever-expanding availability of the abortion pill.

A new poll shows public support for legal abortion has declined in the United States over the past year. The Associated Press and NORC Center for Public Affairs Research conducted a July 10-14 survey of 1,437 U.S. adults. The share of adults who think abortion should be illegal in "all cases" or "most cases" increased by 7% since June 2024, according to pollsters. The poll found 36% of Americans think abortion should always or mostly be illegal. When the same pollster asked the question around the same time last year, only 29% of Americans thought this way.

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."

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."

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.

Kelsey Grammer, the actor and director best known for his roles in Frasier, Cheers, and Transformers, recently shared his personal experience with abortion. In his new memoir, Karen: A Brother Remembers, he reflected on two abortions in his past, expressing the deep pain and regret they have caused him throughout his life. "I know that many people do not have a problem with abortion, and though I have supported it in the past, the abortion of my son eats away at my soul," Grammer wrote.

ProPublica has received a 2025 Pulitzer Prize for a report critics say falsely blamed a Georgia woman's death on pro-life legislation — despite evidence that her fatal complications stemmed from the abortion pill. The reporting team, which included Kavitha Surana, Lizzie Presser, Cassandra Jaramillo, and Stacy Kranitz, was awarded the prize for coverage the Associated Press described as "reporting on pregnant women who died after doctors delayed urgent care in states with strict abortion laws," according to Shawn Fleetwood of The Federalist. Left unmentioned was that the story at the center of the award has been widely challenged for its misleading framing.
