Looking forward to all of the @March_for_Life attendees who will make their way to Washington next week. If you are an Oklahoman marching for life, I encourage you to stop by my D.C. office and share why you march. #whywemarch #ProLife pic.twitter.com/HQUyd2djKl

Many of those attending from around the country will be celebrating their own special reasons for marching, such as gratitude for the lives of their “unplanned pregnancies,” their children who were born prematurely or with disabilities, or those who were conceived in rape.
Sometimes the best thing in life are unplanned. #whywemarch pic.twitter.com/ex272bB6Ao

“My son was born days after I completed my 1st semester at Columbia Law School. I rejected the need to choose between motherhood & my dreams of becoming a lawyer. I would have never graduated with honors or gotten my dream job without him pushing me to be better every single day” pic.twitter.com/zUZM0g6lzC

Many said this baby wouldn’t survive then they said she wouldn’t have a productive life and would be a “vegetable”…they were wrong. I was fine. Praise and glory to God! #WhyWeMarch #MarchForLife pic.twitter.com/Ptj1MK8o7k

We have lost over 53 million of our classmates, teammates, and friends to abortion since Roe v. Wade. This is not somebody else’s problem. We are the generation that will end abortion. #whywemarch pic.twitter.com/8MHNVUP7qr

Since Roe v Wade, approximately 30 million females have been aborted. These are our sisters, classmates, and friends wiped away from our lives forever directly because of abortion. #WhyWeMarch pic.twitter.com/5DqfNl2nKJ

And some will be celebrating their own lives – that they, themselves, survived abortion.

This is my daughter. If I hadn’t survived an abortion, she wouldn’t be here. Abortion didn’t empower me as a woman. It tried to strip my right as a woman and my right to motherhood. The chance at life and motherhood is what truly empowers me as a woman. #whywemarch pic.twitter.com/Baeh6cmtRI

As we approach the March for Life & Walk for Life, we continue to be reminded of how the abortion business is just that: a business. They don’t have the true interests of women in mind. They simply want money & they get it through abortion.#WhyWeMarch https://t.co/7gCbcjXry7

Every human person is formed by God and every person belongs to the human family, even the smallest, even the weakest. That is why the right to life is the first right, it is absolutely essential. –

In his proclamation declaring January 22 “National Sanctity of Human Life Day,” Trump said that, as a nation, “we must remain steadfastly dedicated to the profound truth that all life is a gift from God, who endows every person with immeasurable worth and potential.”
“We are grateful for those who support women experiencing unexpected pregnancies, those who provide healing to women who have had abortions, and those who welcome children into their homes through foster care and adoption,” the president added. “On National Sanctity of Human Life Day, we celebrate the wonderful gift of life and renew our resolve to build a culture where life is always revered.”
