Thousands Expected to Rally for Life at the Michigan State Capitol on November 6

Lansing, MI – Thousands of Michiganders are expected to gather at the Michigan State Capitol on Thursday, November 6, 2025 for the biennial Michigan March for Life, hosted by March for Life in partnership with Right to Life of Michigan. 

The Michigan March for Life brings together pro-life people from across the state to stand up against Michigan’s extreme abortion policies and in support of pro-life centers that help women, children and families across Michigan. Since the overturn of Roe v. Wade restored the power to protect the unborn to the people at both the state and federal level, March for Life has organized more than 30 demonstrations in states nationwide.

Michigan is home to over 100 life-affirming clinics and resource centers, providing women, children and families with excellent healthcare and essential support to meet their unique needs.

Members of the media are invited to attend and cover the event. To request credentials or schedule interviews with speakers, please contact Prudence de Bernardo at prudence@peschstrategy.com or 240-672-2828.

The Michigan March for Life is a chance for thousands of people to come together – joyfully, peacefully, and with purpose – and send a vital message to our legislators who have the power to support women, children, and families,” said March for Life president Jennie Bradley Lichter. “The women of Michigan deserve better than the tragedy of abortion, and we want them to know we are here for them, no matter what they are facing. I hope everyone who believes in love, in life, and in a more hopeful future for this state will join us in Lansing on November 6th. 

President of Right to Life Michigan Amber Roseboom added:  

All across Michigan, there is a tremendous amount of enthusiasm as we head into the second Michigan March for Life. While a woman in Michigan can have an abortion at any point in her pregnancy for any reason, no woman should ever be made to feel that abortion is the best or only option. Pro-lifers from across our state have a powerful message for women facing unplanned pregnancies – you are not alone! We stand with you. We stand for you. There are resources in every community in our state to support a woman who wants to choose life, many of which will be showcased at the march. I am grateful for each and every organization working with us to make another peaceful, joyful state march possible.”

The Michigan March for Life is part of a growing State March Program organized by March for Life in partnership with local organizations, including Right to Life of Michigan, empowering citizens to be a voice for the voiceless and to advocate for life-affirming policies in their own states.

March for Life 2026 Theme: ‘Life is a Gift’

(Daily Citizen) — The theme for the 53rd annual March for Life is “Life is a Gift.” The event will take place in Washington, D.C. on Friday, January 23, 2026.

Jennie Bradley Lichter, who became President of the March for Life after last year’s march, will lead the gathering.

In remarks at the National Press Club, Lichter described the theme as “an invitation to everyone to be swept up into a movement that transcends politics and celebrates joy, beauty and goodness of life.”

In addition to addressing law and policies central to promoting a culture of life, this year’s message calls on participants to reflect on the gift of every human life — born and preborn — and to advocate for life with conviction and love.

The powerful video explaining this year’s theme boldly declares, “Every life is a gift. Even when it’s unexpected. Even when the timing feels off. Even when it’s hard. Even when the world says otherwise…. All life deserves a chance because every single human life is a gift.”

Each January, thousands of marchers gather in Washington, D.C. for the National March for Life — the largest annual human rights demonstration in the world.

As in year’s past, the event will begin with a rally on the National Mall, followed by a peaceful march along Constitution Avenue to the U.S. Capitol Building and Supreme Court.

Organizers of the event also announced this year’s pre-rally concert will feature the Grammy-nominated, Dove award-winning Christian band Sanctus Real.

The National Anthem will be led by the Friends of Club 21 Choir, a group of young people with Down syndrome from Colorado Springs. Their participation is a powerful reminder that every human life, regardless of ability, has immeasurable dignity and worth.

Sarah Hurm, whose testimony of hope and redemption includes reversing a chemical abortion, will offer one of the march’s featured testimonies. Her story highlights real-life impacts of life-affirming choices and second chances.

Georgetown University Right to Life will hold the banner and lead the march this year.

In addition to the national march, many states now host their own local march for life throughout the year. This initiative, led by the national march organizers, reflect the shifting landscape and increased focus on state-level engagement and community-based outreach. Learn more about the state marches here.

Even with the reversal of Roe v. Wade, the work to build a culture of life in America is not over. From instituting pro-life laws at the federal and state level to changing hearts and minds, the sacred work of the pro-life movement continues.

Pro-life friends who plan to attend the March for Life in Washington, D.C. can learn more details at March for Life.

March for Life on President Trump’s Upcoming Comments Today Regarding Administrative Action on IVF

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – October 16, 2025 

Washington, D.C. – Today March for Life issued the following comment regarding administrative action on IVF: 

March for Life appreciates that President Trump has heard and is responding to so many Americans who dream of becoming parents.  The desire for parenthood is natural and good.  Children are a blessing.  Life is a gift.  The White House’s announcement today is rooted in these core truths.

Here’s what else we know to be true: every human life is precious – no matter the circumstances.  We continue to encourage any federal government policymaking surrounding IVF to prioritize protecting human life in its earliest stages and to fully align with basic standards of medical ethics.

We welcome the Administration’s commitment to making groundbreaking advancements in restorative reproductive medicine more accessible and available to American women.  RRM aims to resolve rather than ignore underlying medical issues, increasing health and wellness while also restoring fertility, and responding to the beautiful desire for children while avoiding any collateral loss of human life.”

March for Life Won’t Just Oppose Abortion Next Year

(Daily Signal) — The new president of the March for Life announced that the theme for the 53rd annual march is “Life is a Gift.” On Jan. 23, tens of thousands are expected to gather on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., to march to bring awareness to the hundreds of thousands of abortions that occur in the United States each year and to convince people of the sacredness of human life.  

The organization also announced that Grammy-nominated Christian rock band Sanctus Real will perform at a pre-march rally. Friends of Club 21 Choir, a group of young adults from Colorado with Down syndrome, will sing the national anthem. And Sarah Hurm, a mother who began to abort her child using the abortion pill, will give the featured testimony, sharing how she changed her mind and saved her baby with the abortion pill reversal procedure.

Jennie Bradley Lichter, the new president of the March for Life Education and Defense Fund, shared her vision for the 53rd March for Life at a news conference on Tuesday.

“Our goal,” Lichter shared, “is to invite everyone to the irrepressible joy of the March for Life; to be swept up into a movement that transcends politics and celebrates the joy, beauty, and goodness of life itself.”

She emphasized that the theme, Life is a Gift, speaks to the heart: “We want to draw people in by emphasizing what makes the march so powerful: joy, unity and radiant hope of tens of thousands of people coming together.”

For 53 years, pro-life supporters have come together for this event. Lichter believes the march continues to flourish after all these years because “it is rooted in this fundamental conviction that life is a gift. That is a core human truth, and that truth has immense staying power.”

Last year, JD Vance made his first public appearance at the march as the vice president. He joined the rally stage with Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

The organization shared that while President Donald Trump hasn’t yet made plans to attend this year, he voiced his support for life and the march last year via video. He pledged that in his second term he would “stand proudly for families and for life.”

The group expects to announce more speakers as it gets closer to January.

The March for Life Education and Defense Fund is the organization that powers the public demonstration every year. It operates year-round, organizing small state marches across the country and lobbying for pro-life policies.
