Pro-lifers want to keep marching against abortion annually in Washington, D.C., but some are pushing to move national events from January to June to celebrate the end of Roe v. Wade.
Thousands of activists attended last month’s 50th annual March for Life. That event marks the anniversary of the Jan. 22, 1973, Supreme Court ruling in Roe that legalized abortion nationwide.
“Pro-life people should claim this day as a reminder of the great things that can be accomplished when good people are courageous and undeterred by evil’s perverted scare tactics,” added Camille Pauley, co-founder of South Dakota-based Healing the Culture.“The annual March for Life will remain in January, as announced in October, with our growing state marches occurring throughout the year when state legislatures are in session,” Jeanne Mancini, March for Life president, told The Times.
Pro-lifers lost ballot initiatives to ban abortion in friendly states like Kentucky, Kansas and Montana last year — and many political insiders say the end of Roe galvanized Democratic voters to limit Republican gains in November’s midterm elections. Since Dobbs, red states have moved to restrict abortion, and blue states have loosened restrictions, leading to a patchwork of differing state regulations.
According to some national pro-life activists, it will be hard to completely let go of a January march, even if more participants begin gathering in June.
