Notable guests and speakers will include: Jeanne Mancini, President of the March for Life Education and Defense Fund, Representative Jena Powell, Ohio District 80, His Excellency Bishop David Bonnar from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Youngstown , Ruth Cabrera-Henriquez, an Ohio mother who chose life despite pressure to abort, Margie Christie, the President of the Right to Life Action Coalition in Ohio, Pastor David Forbes of the Columbus Christian Center, Dr. Alveda King of Alveda King Ministries, Aaron Baer, the President of the Center for Christian Virtue, Peter Range, the Executive Director of Ohio Right to Life, and Damascus Worship. 

“The March for Life, along with the Center for Christian Virtue, is delighted to welcome pro-life friends from Ohio to the first Ohio March for Life, where we will advocate for state laws that respect the human dignity of every person, born and unborn,” said Jeanne Mancini, President of March for Life Education and Defense Fund. “Every voice counts all the more in this historic new phase of the pro-life movement. The people of Ohio and the Ohio state legislature will surely witness the devotion and love that motivate their pro-life constituents, and the state’s enthusiasm for a post-Roe America.”
