Why the March for Life Matters

October 18, 2016 By Scott Zipperle

Why the March for Life Matters

100-days

In 100 days, tens of thousands of pro-life Americans will descend upon our Nation’s Capital for the March for Life. The March for Life is the largest annual peaceful, human rights protest in the world, and it happens every January in Washington D.C. on the anniversary of legalized abortion on demand in the United States.

>>>> Click HERE to RSVP for the 2017 March for Life on Friday, January 27, 2017.

In 1973, the nine justices of the U.S. Supreme Court overturned dozens of state abortion laws by handing down two of the most egregious court decisions in American history – Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton. Since then, over 57 million lives have been lost to abortion, and millions of women harmed and wounded.

The March for Life needs you to be a voice for the voiceless! Every voice counts, and collectively we make a much more powerful difference as the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. The bigger the crowd at the March, the more forceful a symbolic statement is made, and message sent, to the White House, Capitol Hill, the media, and the entire culture.

This year, the March for Life will be held exactly one week after the 2017 Presidential nomination, and we plan to send a powerful message to our new president about the importance of respecting and protecting the inherent dignity of the human person from conception!

>>>> Watch March for Life President Jeanne Mancini on the importance of the March for Life.

The March for Life is open to people of all ages, all backgrounds, and all socio-economic statuses. It is the premier pro-life event of the year.  Whether it’s because of moral convictions, religious beliefs, or scientific facts, the March for Life is the place to be. We unite to shine a light on truth, and to help women, men and families continue to advocate for life.

>>>> Watch March for Life supporter Alison Howard on why the March for Life matters.


Our vision is a world where every human life is valued and protected and our hope for the future is that one day we won’t have to march for life because abortion is not only illegal, but it’s unthinkable.

Alison says it eloquently:

“My hope for the future is that our future kids can look back and know that we stood up for life when it mattered most. That we went to Washington D.C. in the middle of January; every year we had to, to make sure that their friends were not terminated. To make sure that they had the chance, like we do, to speak up for ourselves, and advocate for life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness. Part of that, for me, is speaking up for those who can’t speak for themselves. And so that’s why the March for Life and all the pro-life movement has continued to work really hard to make sure others have that chance to speak up for themselves and live the life that God’s given them.”

If you have attended the March for Life for many years, or you’ve always felt convicted to go, we hope you’ll join us next year, on Friday, January 27, 2017 for the March for Life. Together, our voices are stronger.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD’S ANNIVERSARY

The Enormous Loss of Life During This Time is Cause for Grief Not Celebration

 

 

WASHINGTON DC— This weekend, Planned Parenthood will commemorate its 100th  anniversary dating back to the 1916 opening of Margaret Sanger’s first clinic in New York City. Originally known as the American Birth Control League, renamed Planned Parenthood in 1942, the organization has evolved into a billion dollar business, and is the single largest provider of abortions in the United States.

“The 100th anniversary of our nation’s largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, is a somber reminder of the work we have ahead of us in building a culture of life. Since 1973, over 57 million Americans have been lost to abortion, with many mothers suffering regret after making such a choice. Planned Parenthood has been the primary means for this tremendous loss in our country.

While some will celebrate on Sunday, we instead grieve the fact that approximately one sixth of our nation is not with us today because of the very work of Planned Parenthood. We will also use this anniversary to redouble our educational efforts to show the attractive and empowering truth that being pro-life is pro-woman, and, unlike Margaret Sanger, we know that each person- regardless of race, special needs, or “being planned”- has inherent dignity from the moment of conception.” said Jeanne Mancini, President of March for Life Education and Defense Fund.

The March for Life in Washington, D.C. began as a small demonstration on January 22, 1974, the first anniversary of the now-infamous Supreme Court decisions in Roe v Wade and Doe v Bolton and rapidly grew to be the largest pro-life event in the world.  The peaceful demonstration that has followed on this somber anniversary every year since is a witness to the truth concerning the greatest human rights violation of our time, legalized abortion on demand.

Jeanne Monahan-Mancini, President of March for Life Education and Defense Fund, is available for interviews. For more information or to schedule an interview, please contact Catherine Bradley at cbradley@sbpublicaffairs.com or (703) 739-5920.

March for Life Statement on Planned Parenthood Lawsuit

 

“As we approach the 100th anniversary of our nation’s largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, this Sunday, their dark scandal involving the trafficking of little hearts, lungs and livers for profit will be haunting the group as longtime business partner- DaVinci Bio – is now being prosecuted for these crimes. May justice be served, and may the inner workings of Planned Parenthood continue to come into the light so that one day soon Americans no longer have to be complicit in funding our nation’s primary abortion organization and its’ sinister work.”  – Jeanne Mancini, March for Life President

Jeanne Mancini Op-Ed in the Federalist

 

March for Life President Jeanne Mancini had an op-ed published in the Federalist entitled, 80 Percent Of Americans Support Limiting Abortion To The First Trimester.

To be clear, any abortion, at any time during a pregnancy, is one too many. We work tirelessly for the day when all Americans understand that no well-informed woman would ever want to choose abortion. Some say culture is upstream of policy; frankly, our nation’s abortion policies are neither upstream nor downstream. They are just out of touch—hopelessly adrift from the morality and will of the American people.

Planned Parenthood: 100 Years of Abuse & Deception

 

This month, Planned Parenthood is “celebrating” it’s 100th birthday, dating back to the eugenicist Margaret Sanger opening her first clinic in New York City in 1916.

In reality, this birthday should be anything but a celebration. Planned Parenthood, and abortion advocates have been doing a real disservice to women and babies for decades.

In the name of “women’s health” the organization works desperately to soften the truth that abortion takes the life of a baby and hurts mothers. But even the best public relations campaigns cannot change reality.

>>>> Check out these resources on all of Planned Parenthood’s deceptions:

  • Alliance Defending Freedom: “Planned Parenthood: The Whole Story”
  • National Right to Life: “Saddest Birthday Ever”
  • Americans United for Life: “Planned Parenthood Turns 100”
  • Students for Life: “Women Betrayed”

Watch Tricia tell her story about the culture’s message about abortion. Tricia deeply regrets the two abortions she had as a young woman, and now works as a pro-life advocate.

https://youtu.be/GM4zFyY5Nh0

I was a product of the culture and I believed everything that the culture was teaching me, which was basically: ‘It’s you first. If it doesn’t fit your agenda, then get rid of it.’

 

It’s really a matter of feeding women the continued lie that life isn’t valuable, it doesn’t matter. The only valuable life that exists is the one that is walking and talking right now. And if it’s not walking, talking and breathing, if it doesn’t have a career, then it’s of no value.

Since 1973 alone, over 57 million abortions – a sixth of our current population in the United States – has been wiped out by abortion, and millions of women are wounded and scarred by the pain of having made such a choice.

Building a culture of life is an effort that requires each and every one of us. Where do we start? As Tricia shares, “we must elevate all life.”

As a pro-lifer, I value all life. I value babies, toddlers, elderly, as well as those in the womb. The difference as a pro-lifer is that the person in the womb can’t speak, they can’t defend themselves.

Please join us this month (and every day of the year) in spreading the truth about life!
