Transcripts For CSPAN Mike 20240705

Birth rate today of americans is 1. 64 children per woman. Thats not replacement that doesnt replace the population we have. The reality is we need workers. The mexican people that come here worked very hard. They take a lot of jobs in areas i know you have heard it. Now it can become a song for the movement of life. You can join hands with the organizations represented here. As we hope for an abortion free america. We shall overcome. Before i knew you, i formed you in the womb. Gods heart is for his children. We shall overcome. For the millions more that will be saved because of your advocacy, we shall overcome. Until every life is loved, cherished, and receives equal protection under the law. I do believe that. Help me sing that song. We shall overcome. We shall overcome. We shall overcome some day. Deep in thy heart. I do believe. We shall overcome some day. We will walk in hand. We will walk handinhand. We will walk hand in hand. We will walk hand in hand some day. Deep in my heart. I do believe. We will walk handinhand someday. He will be our guide. He will be our guide. Jesus be our guide that day. Deep in my heart. I do believe. We shall overcome some day. Nine lets honor america as we sing our national anthem. Oh say can you see by the dawns early light. What so proudly we hailed at the twilights last gleaming. Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight. Oer the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming. And the rockets red glare. The bombs bursting in air. Gave proof through the night. That our flag was still there. Oh say does that starspangled banner yet wave . Or the land of the free and the home of the brave. Please gil a warm welcome to dr. Alvina king. Dr. King God Bless America my home sweet home. Amen. I remember when we started out, we were a lot younger. How about that . Thats good. As i remember our early days, i thank god for you and your team and your dedication for equipping students for life. You students are here today. We are here to support that. People are reporting that america is no longer a christian nation. The body of jesus christ still lives and breathes in s. Us. We could use a fire to reignite us. Love will save the day. Weve been called to the intersection of faith and culture in a society that is targeting our children with the leftist ideology. Now is the time to preserve and safeguard our children. Do you agree . We must always be motivated by love for each other and guided by the foundation of the bible. Let me be clear. The battle has already been won by jesus. We are more than conquerors. Victory belongs to the lord. We are placed in such a time as this for occupation for all the lord has done and has yet to do. Our country is being manipulated into separating based on the color of our skin, which is at the root of the evil of abortion. I have a dream that my children will live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but the content of their character. For this dream to be realized, we must start by understanding there is a critical race. The human race. All of us together. While roe v. Wade was the law of the land, 60 million babies have been legally aborted in the womb. Generations of young people have been erased of having the chance to be born. My uncle once said injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. Could there be any greater injustice than robbing the lives of our most vulnerable . Because of the commitment and dedication of students for life, thank god for students of life. To equip students who protect life. Life is surely winning all around this country. The fight continues at the state level to ensure every unborn baby is given the right to life. Human dignity begins in the womb. I stand to wish you a belated happy fathers day and juneteenth. To celebrate the incredible favor of god that is paved the way to live in a nation where abortion is no longer the law of the land. May abortion become unthinkable. God bless you and god continues to bless america. I love you. Now, please welcome the president of live action. America is like a beautiful song. Our song has dynamics, the highs and lows. It has the highs of our founding promise, of all of us being created equal under the law with the right to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness. Our song, it also has tragic lows. The horror of slavery, the Supreme Court decision in dred scott that denied the legality of black citizenship, people of african history are not included and were not intended to be included under the words citizens in the constitution. None of the rights of privileges the instrument provides as citizens of the United States. Our justices wrote that. How embarrassing for our nation. To blatantly deny those rights to a group of people. That was corrected in 1868 with the ratification of the 14th amendment. The 14th amount is one of most beautiful notes in our national song. It says no state shall deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process or deny anyone be equal. Our 14th amendment reversed the abomination that dred scott perpetuated. It ensured that all americans could not be denied equal protection. On this day, 365 days ago, one year, roe v. Wade was overturned. It was overruled. Let me speak about this abomination that was roe v. Wade. We demand equal protection for preborn children. These protections do not require a new constitutional amendment. They already exist in our constitution at this moment. Right now, abortion is unconstitutional. It is illegal. It violates our highest law. Do you hear that, congress . Do you hear that Supreme Court . Do you hear that President Biden . It was enacted to enact the equal treatment of all citizens. We have failed to extend these protections. Jacob howard said the purpose of the 14th amendment was to disable a state from depriving not merely a citizen but any person who ever of life, liberty, property. California, new york, states across our country are violating our 14th amendment by preying upon our most vulnerable reborn brothers and sisters. An abolitionist and fighter for emancipation called the 14th amendment a superstructure of every human being before the law. These children have souls. Life begins at the beginning, at fertilization. From the moment of fertilization, a distinct human being is formed read these tiny lives possess incredible potential. They should be celebrated and protected. Its a tragic contradiction that our society celebrates advancements in prenatal care and technology, we deny personhood and rights of these very same children. It is inconceivable that we would deny these rights to one group of human beings based on their location. There is no arbitrary line that can be drawn. We must recognize that every child possesses an inherent right to life. Protecting the rights of the preborn is not a matter of politics. Our movement is diverse. People of all backgrounds, our fight is a matter of justice and human rights. It is about standing up for the voiceless. Our society is judged by how we treat the most vulnerable among us. History will judge us if we deny equal protection to children in the womb. Today, our fight is beginning. I urge you to join me in demanding equal protection for all. Demanding a society that values all human life. A society that recognizes and upholds the rights of our most vulnerable. Thank you. Now please welcome the host of the Michael Knowles show. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. It is so wonderful to be here today. It is a great honor to celebrate the anniversary of Supreme Court decision to eradicate the National License to abortion. It is a wonderful occasion and worthy of rejoicing. In the dog days of pride month, we must be careful not to exalt beyond reason. We are not gathered here today to celebrate any law that protects human life. Last year is humbler than that. We celebrate the end of a 50 year fatwa that banned the possibility of a lot to protect human life. Some say the states can decide whether protect innocent life or not. There are some prolifers who are content to leave it at that. I know its not those people here today. Not you. I am preaching to the choir of people who understand that human beings dont forfeit their right to life just because they have the misfortune of being born under the butcher us regimes of california and new york. There are people who call themselves prolife who would prefer to leave abortion as a matter of states rights. I am all for states rights. No state has the right to murder. Murder is not a right. Murder is not a right. No one, no state has the right to do wrong. The National License to abortion, which sacrifice the lives of 65 million did not arise in a vacuum. It appeared in a culture that confused license for liberty and sought to sever every natural bond. This appetite culminated as it must in the most ghastly separation one can imagine. Just as abortion did not arise, neither will it ended vacuum. It will not end with the judicial ruling with half measure concessions or with procedural piffle about states rights. If abortion is to end, it will end with an articulation of the truth. God gave them life. No one has the right to take their lives away. If abortion is to end with a restoration of the things that foster life, an economy that encourages homemaking, and education does him that cultivates virtue and suppresses vice, the real kind of marriage, the kind between a husband and wife. Which is the basic unit of society and represents love that produces another human being. The National License to abortion established 10 years after the courts decisions to prohibit prayer in school. The timing is no coincidence. Pagan societies have sacrificed their children on the altars of their false gods. The judicial severing of our nation insured all manner of people. There are some people who call themselves prolife who would refer to speak of abortion in secular terms. I welcome the support of anyone. Anyone who defends innocent human life. Ultimately, this way of thinking and talking is a fools errand, another half measure that misses the mark. Our right to life derives not only from our flesh, but from the fact that we are made in the image and likeness of god. We humans are not only bodies with instinct and appetite, souls capable of reason. Despite what the tyrants of history believed, its not merely the exercise of will and power, the ordinance of reason by him who has care of the community. It is a ricins. It will end with the recognition that all just law derives not from the whims of congressmen, but the moral law established by the god that formed us in our mothers wombs. The hour is too late. The principalities and powers of this world are too strong and wicked. I echo cardinal manning, who understood there is a day to come which will reverse the judgments of men. One such day has already come. Roe v. Wade is dead. Now, we look forward to that greater date, that is to come when our countrymen once again will live. Thank you very much. Welcomed the president of students for life. One year ago, i stood on the steps of the Supreme Court to read for the first time the constitution does not confer a right to abortion. For many, that moment might have seemed like the culmination of your work and the chapters across the nation. The work of so many heroes who ensured we reach that day. Heroes like the first black woman to graduate harvard medical school. Heroes like a homemaker or Ronald Reagan. A former abortionist. For us, those of us who were born under the threat of legal abortion, the prolife generation, it wasnt the twilight of our mission. It was a new dawn. A new dawn for our nation. Life is winning in america as 25 states have laws that protect preborn children. In all honesty, we must acknowledge that we are living in divided states of america. A nation where a person possible location determines if they would survive. A nation of walking wounded men women suffering from past decisions that are being gas lit. A nation where far too many Young Mothers and fathers still do not know where to turn in a moment of crisis that doesnt prescribe the death of their child. A nation that has seen our government set loose upon all of us those agencies like the fda and the doj that are supposed to help us. Instead, they are ensuring the end of section regulations. They are polluting our environment. They are closing their eyes to the hate crimes. These divided states will not stand. I believe mr. Lincoln was right. We will become one thing or another. That one thing must be in america where every human being is recognized as they are. With equal rights and equal protection under the 14th amendment. Not because of what state their mother resides in or if they were conceived to be convenient or the circumstances of their conception. We gather here today because we think the United States of america, where every child is welcomed by our acts of service. We are here today for them. For 49 years, we suffered under the tyranny of ro. We did just as mr. King asked us to do. We do now. In this new dawn, when the sun will shine over every town and every state, as we wait for the sun to rise, we must bring our light, holding candles to sign shine light. The violence of planned parenthood and abortion practices 2000 times a day. We will sign our light on campuses, online, and even doortodoor. The social safety net, our movement, has supported and sustained 3000 Pregnancy Centers and maternity homes for women in crisis. We will shine light in the halls of each state capital. We will demand laws that save lives, protect children, and aid mothers in crisis read today, we gather to shine our light right here in washington dc. We ensure those who seek privilege to serve here at the capital of a nation founded on the principles that all have the fundamental right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. They have the courage to resist false compromises. We demand protection at conception. Human rights when human life begins. We will not grow weary. We will not rest until high noon comes. Even then, we will work to ensure that the sun never sets on human rights for all human persons in america. Mr. Lincoln reminded us of this. We shall not fail if we stand firm. Weiss councils may separate or mistakes may delay, but sooner or later, the. Sure to come. High noon, equal rights for all, born in freeborn, coming 2 america. The sun will shine in every mountaintop and valley and every child at last. We will be free to be born. Walks welcome to the stage , ceo 40 days for life. Sean party. This is just the beginning. We never imagined this day would come. Many are not with us who were working to make this happen. We are witnessing solidarity, we will honor them tonight because today is one of the greatest days in the history of the United States read today, for us, it is a privilege to be american, with a sacred spot in celebration of this huge victory for all americans read many in the country, as they did after the emancipation are sprinting to be on the wrong side of history. We didnt ask for abortion. Women didnt vote on abortion. It was an allmale supreme art. They gave us abortion in 1973 in the Supreme Court, they did what they shouldve done. Go which is to correct their error. They have dehumanized americans twice. Dred scott dehumanized africanamericans did because of their skin color. In roe v. Wade dehumanized the unborn. This time, not because of race but because of size and location. The Supreme Court corrected those errors. Afterwards, there were a lot of people who said we need to go back to slavery or maybe we should pay the slaves. They look absolutely absurd today. Right now, we are in a difficult battle for hearts and minds. No one grows up wanting to be an abortion. No will woman once an abortion. One of the reasons of the Prolife Movement that is so powerful why it is truly the beginning of the end of urgent is because we are not a movement of a bunch of selfrighteous christian trying to tell people how to live. We are a movement of converts. We are a movement led by women who laid on the table and had an abortion. Led by abortion doctors who have done abortions. When parenthood workers who continue to have conversions. We are a movement of converts. That is why we are a movement of hope. That is why it is so powerful to stand up for the dignity of the human person. At a time when abortion advocates want infanticide and lateterm abortions. They are just absolutely losing their minds. The response is appropriate. Last year, the Supreme Court tried to drive us out of science. In 22023, they could do surgeries on unborn children. They could not allow pregnant women on a roller coaster. Yet, we will go in if we dont want them and discard them in the most violent way. 40 days for life is built for a post row world. This goes out of the Supreme Court and into the grassroots. Out of the hundred 39 abortion facilities, the 40 days for life, they have helped close 45 of those. There are more on the way. By the grace of god, 45 percent of those abortion facilities closed due to peaceful prayer vigils. We have blue pro Abortion States where they will remain legally and even celebrated because you can change the heart and mind of a woman anywhere. Some of the last closures of abortion facilities weve saved were in the wonderful prolife cities of san francisco, seattle, and chicago. We can win if we focus on hearts and minds because this is now very much marketdriven, and how blessed are we to have a wonderful Pregnancy Research center across the country that now outnumbers abortion providers five to one. We are privileged to be in a part of history were planned parenthood incompetency with the ceo position is at an alltime high. It always hasnt been. They are sheep right now, we see it in the local abortion facilities. It is hard to run a facility. It is harder when you can get no support from corporate. Morale inside of these facilities is at an alltime low. That is why we helped 251 abortion workers who had a change of heart and left her job because no one wants to work in the abortion industry. As these facilities close, we are seeing most jobs post row, and abortion through cities. We see that, we see states and if we can have abortion free states we can have an abortion free region and if we can have an abortion free region, we can have an abortion free country, and when we do that, not if, but when, americas abortion free and we fulfill the great prophecy when america returns to her roots. It ends abortion. The world will follow. Lets do just that. Ladies and shaman, welcome the 40th Vice President of the United States, mike pence. Hello, america. What a glorious night. A glorious day. I am mike pence. I am prolife. It is a joy and an honor to stand with this pro life generation on the First Ever National celebrate life day. It is amazing to think that as we hear this historic place, after 50 years of innocent life loss, and broken hearts, after 50 years of prayer and advocacy and a march on a dark anniversary on the small every january. One year ago today, because of your work, and because of your prayers, the Supreme Court of the United States set row versus rate wage to the as sheep and gave them a new beginning for life. I came today to say thank you. I came to say weve begun a new tradition. The celebration of the progress weve made for life to commend each and every one of you here. Those looking on around the country. Those that have labored in the years past read those that are no longer with us. For all youve done, to bring about a historic day one year ago today. We commend all of the leaders for life, gathered here. I have to tell you, you will soon see a podium of some of the greatest champions for life in the United States of america. I commend all of the leaders in more than two dozen states. Around this country. In the halls of congress. But as we celebrate the progress weve made, we gather here knowing that we have not come to the end of a cause. The work for life goes on. All across america. With principles and compassion and devotion, of all those gathered here, we celebrate this great new anniversary. Let us here resolve. We will work and we will pray and we will do so as never before to advance the cause of life and the laws of the land in every state in america. We will support women in crisis and pregnancies. We will have resources that support there will be in unborn for the newborn as never before. We will advanced the cause of adoption in america to be prolife. You must be proadoption. We will elect leaders it every level who will stand without apology for the sanctity of human life area this is our cause. The cause of life is the calling of our time. We can never bring back those 62 million lives whose voices were never heard in this world. They are heard in the next. Those we lost in the last 50 years. With your compassion, with your renewed devotion. We can someday and soon give all of the American People born and unborn a new beginning for life. On the celebrate life day we celebrate and we stand for life. We stand for babies. For their unalienable right to life. We stand for the right of every mother and father to experience the inexpressible joy of looking into the eyes of their own. We stand for families who long. They long to open their hearts and their families through adoption. Ultimately, we stand with him. We say weve been formed in the warm and we known you. Before you were born, he said he was set apart. We know in our heart of hearts, we make a cause to the author of life, we make his work is very own. Men and women of the Prolife Movement, less never relent in the cause of life. Lets remember what matters for america. We stand before the lincoln monument, but not far from here is the jefferson memorial. In the words of the jefferson memorial, an admonition for time. Thomas jefferson wrote, god who gave us life gave us liberty. Can this liberty be secured as a gift of god . I tremble for the country. I reflect that god is just. Justice cannot sleep forever. Were restoring the sinking of life. We save the babies, and we will save america. Thank you all for coming to make a stand. Thank you all to celebrate on this first ever celebrate life day. Looking out on all of you, and knowing the millions that will be looking on in celebration as well, i am more confident than ever that the old book says many are more with us. Dinner with them. I promise you from the bottom of my heart that whatever the future holds, for my little family, we will never rest and never relent until we restore the sanctity of life to the center of american law in every state in the land. So help me god. Thank you. God bless you. God bless america. Pres welcome please welcome the president of the susan b. Anthony life foundation. Thank you so much. Everyone hold up your signs. I want to read them. How beautiful. World needs more prolife men. Thank you. We have dignified children of adam. God is the altar of life. Pray to him. He is not a person no matter how small. Equal rights for unborn women for a generation. This is who you are. This is why you are here. This is why a little while ago, at 10 00 this morning, we celebrated life by celebrating the gods decision. Thank you. In case you dont know, theres a special scripture that reflects the reality of the moment in which we live. With this comes only the steel to kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. That they may have life, and have it abundantly. John 1010. You brought us here. You are a great sampling of the people over the last 50 years. They were on their knees marching, lobbying, rain. They were back down on their knees marching, lobbying, rank now, they are giving up in the face of those who said it was impossible. It was not impossible. Nothing is impossible with god. Also, science. Since we began, it has been very clear that we have not been talking about any other teacher than a human creature. The one who evolved over time with the nurture and love and care of a mother. Wanted or unwanted, there was a fingerprint by week 10. It denotes whether there was it doesnt know whether it is left or right, but there was a hand that would dominate the rest of life. All of these beautifuls beautiful signifying factors that we now know, we didnt know them there. This is a human child that signifies the first right to live and breathe the air and we have the privilege to lead. The brief, and we lead on that fact. Science tells us and is the first human right that as a springboard for other lives we will have and are lies. It must be protected in this nation. We live in a nation that is perfectly suited, ideally suited to defend this right. We are the one country, we lead in the world, and we have for hundreds of years on the ideals of rule. Our ideals come every other trump every other factor bread we dont live under the rule of a king. Or a dictator, we live under the ideals rooted in our documents. Life, liberty, pursuit of happiness. They should not be taken away without due process of law. This is who we are. We are living in a nation that shows a long time ago, but like every other human rights success in our nations history, we are getting there. Think about those successes. How they happen. They happen because you did, and others like you, they did what they knew that they never give up. Susan b. Anthony, our groups namesake never saw the right to vote herself. It wasnt about that brit was about doing the right thing at the right time. Let us think about what has happened recently. Ive look at the time so i dont go over. But the miracle of what happened. That everything aligned, that a president kept a promise. Along with the Vice President. He put this is the first priority. It is aligned with decisions they couldnt even control. What would be on the Supreme Court. They could see it open. Then, the perfect case. Mississippi. Thank you from the attorney general. Then, the day comes, we saw many be taken by surprise, and many have said good. We are at the end. Now that we are at the starting line, we are finished. I say to them, anyone who purports to be a president ial candidate on the republican side, get your act together. Figure out what you are for in advance. Dont wait. We have consensus in this country. Start with that. Be the president you are called to be in justice and love for moms and justice and love for babies. Be clear. In a minute, i will talk to another event about president ial candidates who have all spoken, and i will ask echo. You have a sponsor ability. We do not have a china policy in this country that allows abortion to come to the end. Paid for by all of us. That is the situation in china and north korea. Our National Policy now is chinas National Policy on abortion. 47 out of 50 european nations say no way. Our nation, even the most liberal european nation is better than that. At least 15, and more, but other than that. We have a lot of work to do, and like every human rights because in our time, we have a moment to bring everyone together under truth and love and justice. Just like president lincoln said, prescribed in this mime after the horrible time in our nations history, it broke us apart. We know what this brokenness feels like on this issue. He said, let it strive to finish the work. We are binding up the nations wounds. Let us strive to finish the work we are in to bind up this nations wounds. We know those wounds. We want to prevent those in the future. We want to protect our children and the law and served with justice and love. Thank you for everything youve done to make this day possible. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome mississippis 40th attorney general, lynn fitch. Good morning. May god have the glory. Think about this. One year ago today, about an hour or so ahead, we got the news. The news that we, all of us, have overturned roe v. Wade by the mississippi dog case. When my solicitor general and i stood before justices, we brought our case to them. We said the constitution demands that this be returned to the people. D. All of our respective states. It is certainly up to the people. It is certainly the American People who can be trusted to make hard and complex decisions. That we can vote both promote life and empower women. Now, we all hope and we all pray that the justices would hear are undeniable arguments that are so powerful to get them to the point to overturn roe v. Wade. Not one person here, none of us are safe. We were there every day, every moment, praying that this would happen. So, the reign of woe roe v. Wade is over. Now, it is here, and it is time to act. We must rise to the occasion and act. Until we can give women, the most vulnerable women, all that they need, so that their children can thrive, until we can make changes in our laws that are just as compassionate as our hearts, and until we can find our hearts and minds for all of our americans, until then, our dream of a society that fully embraces the dignity of human life cannot be the reality. So it is our charge today, all of our charges, and this new job here, let me tell you again. In this new era. To tell determination and hope and prayer, that for 50 years, it has killed everyone of us. The change and get to this moment. Now, we must use the same compassion and pair prayer and turn it into action to give hope or love to the children. We have to give this opportunity. We have to support women when they are pregnant and when they are nursing a young family. We have to give up scales and education to provide resources to them. We have to make quality affordable successful childcare. We must promote workplace flexibility. That is ok to support our mothers, our young parents. Fro women to be the mothers they want to be, and at the same time pursue their professional dreams. It is no longer one or the other. We must improve Child Support for meant and make the father responsible equally for their children. Those children deserve to have their fathers invested in their lives to make a difference into uplift them as well. We must fix a broken foster care system. We have to get those children into loving thriving homes as quickly as possible. This is a job we all asked for, we are ready. We are ready. We are given a job and we stood up and said we are ready. This is a job that the Supreme Court gave us one year ago. What a great day. They said roe v. Wade was behind us. We certainly agree with that, but this is a call to action. This is the next chapter in history. Everyone has to participate as we light this new chapter. This is truly the beginning of our next step. I was certainly proud to stand with you in the fight to get to this great day. I continue to stand in this fight as we go through every single day in a new dobbs era. Together, let me say that. Together, we will continue to lead as a society that embraces and truly empowers women and promotes life. Could america have the dignity inherent in all life, all life, cherish by all. Thank you for all youve done. Thank you for what you would do. Thank you for believing in this day. May god always bless you and all of your endeavors. Thank you. The chief creative officer of the radiance foundation, ryan ballmer. Is hot out there. Whos glad to be alive out there . We are. We are created equal. We are created equal. Those words are so powerful and so elusive. The truth is written in the declaration of independence, and it is reiterated by a great man by the name of president abraham lincoln, and it is denied in this day by state and federal lawmakers, civil rights groups, educators, news media, big tech and many other institutions including a bible challenge church. Sorry to Vice President , harris, but we are being created equal by god and not a government. If only she could find a copy of the document. They went to work to protect the violent is of slavery, and there trying to protect the in demanding of abortion. Same wrong in a different century. Abolitionists have never given up. It is really easy to remember that slavery didnt end in an instant. It is for free after victory until heinous injustice was abolished, and abortion abolitionists will never give up either. For decades, roe v. Wade allowed the most marginalized to become the most belated. They enable the killing of defensive lives labeled unwanted. That is how i was once labeled. One of the benefits my life is when the Dobbs Decision overturned roe v. Wade in 2022. Rose supported. Can i get an amen. It was an historic step towards equality. You can see that many say i shouldve been aborted. I was conceived in rate. But i was adopted in love. Im so grateful to my courageous birth mother for being stronger than our circumstances. We can all be stronger than our circumstances. She was a victim of the violence of rape, but she didnt make me a victim of the violence of abortion and i pray that she will see the healing that she needed, the wholeness that will never, from the latest plant parenthood con or a feminism euphemism. There is strength that allows me to grow up in a diverse family at 15 years of age. Nine of my 12 siblings were adopted by an incredible set of parents. You have to admit that the unwanted child, we are all wanted by someone. Yet, for abortions, absurdly prolifers about people after they are born, i hate that Bumper Sticker mantra, we are the people who care for people after and before they are born. I said people. Every person is a human, and every human is a person print can i get an agreement. If only they could graphs the simple truth. I am married to the level might tribe life. She is part of the prolife womens conference. She is a single mom for two years, she left a toxic relationship to discover she was pregnant. She was a Public School teacher and the pressure to abort was intense. They wanted the child aborted, but she refused. She named our daughter radiance. The reason for our name. She was able to be adopted, and life is always worth the fight. Out of my four children, two were adopted. All four i love like crazy, none of this would have happened had life been snuffed out by the social injustice of abortion. I have used 100 of my time to justify abortion. That used to be me. We are all created equal. The Prolife Movement loves the most precious creation of god. It makes us look like we are insignificant minorities. Frederick douglass didnt care too much for fake news back then. Thats why the founders helped reshape president lincolns conscience on the evils of racism and slavery. Slavery has no rightful existence anywhere. I said the same thing about abortions. You can see that the man who is right in the majority, to god, with a conscience on the side, and a majority of the universe. Guess what. That is the only majority that matters. Welcome to the stage, ceo and president of concerned women for america. Kenny nance. Allstate t what i set on the steps of the Supreme Court had good morning prolife america. I am so grateful to be here with all of you. This is a joyous occasion. This is a time for us to celebrate. Lets remember what went for us. Even suffragists said that abortion is the ultimate exploitation of women. The first choice business. We are with that. What happened . How did they lose sight of the fact that it is the ultimate act of violence that ends a human life . Out as a separate a woman from her child . We are here to remind them that as women across the country, with women from america for generations, they walk the halls of congress. They went doortodoor in the state legislature. They adopted children. The pregnancy care centers. They set before abortion clinics. They took to the media and they raised prolife children. This is how we win. This is how we end abortion. Most of all, this is how we pray. This is not just us. We are writing and building over 50 years. Our generation, your generation, young women for america, students for life, the women that are counting before us in the good men, those that are sitting with us, we are going to end abortion because were going to take away the need for. Were going to join together and give women the resources they need to choose life. One of the things weve been working on, we need all your help, is life. Gov. We spent 1 trillion in social services. Every. The state of texas has just had a turn at div it doesnt do us any good to have resources. Opportunities when we take women into our homes. In less women know about it. We have a bill called the standing moms act. It is sponsored by marco rubio. We have a house sponsored. And we need to win on this. Make sure, you call your congressman. We want to do everything we can, and your governor can do this too, by the way. I just want to end with this. We stand here in humility and gratitude. Also, we grieve. We grieve about 60 million babies. Before this moment, lets work to not include any more heaven and earth to record this day. Life and death blessings and curses, choose life and you never may live. Say it with me. Say together. Three times. Choose life. Choose life. Choose life. Choose life. God bless you, and may God Bless America. Now, welcome the board president. Good morning. It is great to be here with you. On the steps of the lincoln memorial. One year ago today, the Supreme Court struck down a roe v. Wade and we are here today to celebrate life is winning in america. My name is michael and i serve as the board president of sidewalk advocacy for life. Who here has been an advocate . Can i get a scream . Me too. We are the largest prolife sidewalk Advocacy Group in the nation. We train and educate and love those of you on the sidewalk. In just nine years, we have seen 230 location start in more than 20 thousand women and children stage. This is all because of people like you. People like you have chosen to say yes. It is something that is challenging, difficult. To be willing to take a mission from god. Two go save another life. As we celebrate here today, i want to say thank you to all of you. All of us, especially those of us who are younger stand upon the shoulders of those that help change culture. This took a lot of effort from a lot of people to say that we were going to be better. We were going to be different. So all of us here today, all of us that said yes to the lord, that said yes to this michelin are the reason the Supreme Court was able to do what they did. But our work is not done. There is more to do. Although we have much to celebrate with 18 states that no longer have abortion available in their state, which is wonderful, we still have 32 states to go. Amen. We also have an administration trying to turn local pharmacies into drug and abortion drug dispensaries. That is not ok. We have an abortion industry this trying to open abortion clinics on the borders of states that do not have abortion access. Becoming an abortion destination state. That is not ok. We also have a predatory abortion industry that is flooding social media and other areas trying to change the hearts and minds of young people. That is not ok. We have more work to drill do, we must compel each other in our community to keep standing up for life. Overturning roe is the gift we were given, and we are all elated to be here. But our gift back to that is to keep pursuing what needs to be done in our local communities. All of this is local. Friends, mothers and crisis need you. On foreign children need you. Broken and hurting families need you. We need to continue shining the light of christ into your communities and help continue to change america and bring us back to the prolife country and the individual prolife states. Thank you for joining me today. Have a wonderful day. Welcome the cheeky occasions officer and patriot mogul. And executive director of mobile action, lee watkins. Hello. Today, on this oneyear anniversary of ben historic jobs decision, we have an amazing opportunity. This opportunity is to recommit ourselves to the protection of innocent life. It is great to be seeing this on street corners, at kitchen tables, at state legislators, in school board meetings. That debate is in every corner of our nation. In todays divided nation, it is not enough that we talk at people. We must reach out and educate people about the fact membrane them over to our sides. Both narratives are tearing at the very fabric of our nation. Both narratives are causing the cost of innocent lives across america. The truth is on our side. Intellectual honesty is on our side. Most importantly, god is on our side. On these steps, many great men and women have spoken inspiring words, and watched important movements fulfill the promises of our bonding founding of this country. Documents like the declaration of independence that say it is our inalienable right to life by our creator. The fulfillment of those promises is enumerated in the 14th amendment that says no state can take innocent life. Our preborn patriots are guaranteed the right to life, not only in our constitution but in the most important document we have. The holy bible. Genesis 127 says only god creates light. God says he knew us even before he formed us in the womb. Todays movement isnt just about changing laws. We are the prolove movement. This is the real love. When you are caring for about pregnancies, we are providing resources for those that want to keep their babies and we are helping moms that want to have a loving option of adoption. We are honored to cohost todays National Celebration of life. We are americas only Christian Conservative Service Provider and we will always provide and stand with you. We will always stand for life. A portion of every dollar we earn goes back to Christian Conservatives. We are passionately defending our godgiven rights and freedoms and glorifying god always. That includes defending preborn patriots. Constitutional and biblical rights to life. There are still much work to do, and we are here for. We hope that you will join us. God bless you. Please welcome prolife advocate and professor at Catholic University of america chad debt noel rated debt noel. Year ago today, an unjust law fell. The story of how america came to kill on industrial scale, human beings and their mother wounds, it is a terrifying one. Tens of millions of human lives were destroyed. It is so great. With the closest analogy and the evil of slavery, we often look to the infanticide, practice the ancient carthage. Carthage was an empire. Not like our own. It was an empire of extraordinary material success. They valued productivity. They were proud of their practicality, they loved luxury. Their wealthiest and most decadent, the carthaginians sacrificed newborn babies on the altars of false gods. Since 1973, so have we. We have sacrificed tens of millions of babies on a false altar of liberty. We have claimed a license to kill even the smallest people in our midst. For millennia, we have regarded freedom not in the freedom to change life or death or good or evil, but to attain some excellence. Some good. Some virtue. Freedom has come to dominate the west. To kill our children. It is the view that freedom is found in our very power to choose. Including the power to choose the end of life of the most vulnerable. This view of freedom is manifest in false flags. Flags of a civic religion which fly everywhere. It is manifest in the altar of choice. We ourselves as a nation have practiced human sacrifice, much like carthage. Jesus says, we know a tree from its fruits. A false view of freedom doesnt preanyone. The cult of choice destroys with carthaginian abandoned. To avoid the fate of carthage, we must as a country topple this false god. We must crush the altar upon which we practice human sacrifice. We must and abortion in america. We must and abortion with the same moral fringe that we used to and slavery. We must and abortion out through the false freedoms of democratic choice, but through the truth liberty in accord to what is right and just. We must and abortion. Through the executive power, we interpret the equal protection clause of the 14th minute. Including a person in the womb. We must and abortion through congress. Right on the way. We must have innovative legislation that makes it cheaper to have a baby than to kill one. It makes abortion unthinkable. But we cannot and abortion by returning in the states. We cannot and abortion through the high court. Consistent arguments about positive law, and making sure our positive law arrives at moral judgments which are correct, true, and jobs ending in unjust laws. Thanks be to god. But it did not and it cannot and abortion. We have entered a much bigger spite to life at the state level. We must keep our eye on the prize. The fight for the recommendation of a preborn person is fully human. It is deserving of equal protection under the constitution. These are the new north stars. Carthage must fall. Thank you. Welcome to the stage, writer and spokesperson and focus on the family. Nicole hunt. Good morning friends. Good morning. It is a good day in america because it is a prolife day in america. Amen. My name is nicole hunt, and i am here to bring greetings for focus on the family. I have a privilege of advocating for the sanctity of life on focus, and what an exciting time it is to be a part of the Prolife Movement. Am i right . Focus on the family has always been prolife. It is one of our core principles. Today, on the First Anniversary of the reversal of roe, we are honored to be here with all of you. Life is worth celebrating. Hot at focus on the family, we believe that every person has inherent dignity and value because they are image bearers of god. A preborn babies work worth is not dependent on age, location, ability or dependency. It is not based on cultural norms or whether a baby is wanted or unwanted. Preborn babies deserve protection under the law because of their status as human beings and that distinction begins with the womb. We have seen euphoric highs and surprising losses. There have been mixed results. The hope for the future of the Prolife Movement is absolutely still in existence because of these reasons. Human lives are being saved from the tragedy of abortion. This past year, 24 states have passed prolife laws to protect mothers and babies. These laws have seen tens of thousands of babies saved from abortion. Unique souls who i virtue of being alive have already changed the course of history. Amen. Second, the majority of americans believe abortion should be restricted. A poll was released that showed 64 of americans favor some kind of restriction on abortion. While the abortion lobbyists are trying to discredit related efforts as out of talks with the American People, the truth is that the majority of americans support limiting abortions. And the number three. Privacy Resource Centers are stepping into the gap, and they are serving women and families and more comprehensive ways than ever before. In 2019, these centers for two main people gave over 270 million in services to little or no cost to their clients. These are three solid ways for the Pro Life Movement that indicate lifeaffirming policies. Please keep advocating for life. Youre are making a difference. Thank you and god bless. Welcome michael jenny. Thank you. I have very good news for you. I am the last speaker. However, please stay far closing prayer. We have a reverent following me. Thank you. A century ago, gk chesterton toward the United States. Then, he published what i saw in america. This is what he said. America is the only nation in the world that is founded on a creed. That creed is set forth in the declaration of independence. It enunciates that all are equal in their claims for justice. That governments exist to give justice. It clearly names a creator as the ultimate authority from whom these equal rights are derived. We begin with the quality. We assemble on hologram. We stand in the shadow of a great emancipator. He is speaking to us today. My fellow americans, we must not be enemies. We must abide by the better angels of our nature. We begin with the quality. Fairness. That is justice. There was a time when all were recognized as created equal except for africanamericans. Today, all are recognized as created equal. Except for the preborn americans. This unjust discrimination must end. That is the reality. That is fairness. That is justice. We are endowed by our creator with unalienable rights, and these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These are self evident. True. They always have been and always will be. We are made in the image and likeness of god and these inalienable rights exist and interpret they cannot be taken away. Not subject to executive order, legislate of action or judicial decision. Or majority vote. Unalienable rights precede and supersede. They are eternal. They are the mortal for a constitutional republic. The glue. We will hold these truths to be selfevident that all are entitled to certain inalienable rights. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And the sequence matters. Without lights, there can be no liberty. Without liberty, there is no true happiness. We stand in the shadow of the great emancipator here and he urges us to proceed with malice towards nonand justice for all. He reminds us that rights make might. It is right to defend the vulnerable. It is right to stand for the least among us. It is right to protect human beings at every stage. 35 years ago, president Ronald Reagan issued the emancipation proclamation of freeborn children, this is what he said. Now, i come a Ronald Reagan, president of the night states of the Authority Vested in me by the constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim and declareunalienabley american from the moment of conception until natural death. I do proclaim ordain and declare that i will take care that the constitution and the laws of the United States are faithfully executed for americans born and unborn. I invoke the judgment of mankind and the gracious favor of almighty god. May we live up to the beauty of our founding principles and may God Bless America, born and unborn. Thank you for being here.

The Douglas Institute named after the great Frederick Douglass where i served, we spent the entire pandemic raising up an army. You probably know abortion disproportionately impacts the black community as an extraordinary number beyond other communities, right . The founder of planned parenthood had a strategy. We do not word to go out that we want to exterminate the negro population. The demand to straighten out that idea as it ever occurs to the more rebellious members. What we have been doing during the last two to three years while the nation was shut down was pursuing overturning the curse. Reversing the curse of Margaret Sanger and empowering primarily africanamerican pastors but other pastors and leaders as well to stand up and speak out for life.
