In 2013, the anniversary date of the Roe v. Wade decision will fall on Tuesday, the day following the public ceremonies marking the Presidential Inauguration. We were not able to secure an adequate number of hotel rooms early in the week, so we have scheduled the MARCH FOR LIFE on Friday, January 25, 2013. Our hotel block will be available starting on Wednesday, January 23 and running through Friday night, January 25.
Please plan now to attend. Your presence, in growing numbers every year, is the best way to draw attention to the untenable legacy of Roe v. Wade, and to persuade our leaders to eradicate it from America’s future.
