Frequently asked questions
Why March on Monday, March 6, 2023
We want the California March for Life – being held on March 6, 2023 in Sacramento, CA – to be the biggest pro-life advocacy event that our state’s capital has ever seen! We are focusing on making a statement in support of life that will be heard loud and clear by our legislators. Our message of love for the unborn children and their mothers will be heard by every member of the legislature as they come to Sacramento that Monday for one of their session days.
