Light Up the Night: How Pro-Lifers Can Make a Difference in the Face of Extreme Late-Term Abortion Legislation

Forty-six years earlier, the Supreme Court of the United States had granted women the right to legally abort their babies in Roe v. Wade. This act is extreme because it removes restrictions on abortions, essentially allowing babies to be killed up until the moment […]

Abortion Dominates Headlines: No Justice for Jennifer, NIFLA Center Vandalized

On January 22, 2019, New York passed its “Reproductive Health Act” – or RHA.

In addition, it decriminalizes abortion as a result of assault against a pregnant woman. The state of Virginia recently considered legislation that, according to its sponsor Del. Kathy Tran, D-Va., clearly allows for abortion up to the time […]

The Supreme Court of the United States in 2018 heard the case of NIFLA v. Becerra, and in 2016 the case of Whole Women’s Health v. Hellerstedt.

Marsha’s Place Plays Role in Abortion Pill Reversal Bill

NIFLA member Marsha’s Place Pregnancy Resource Center in Henderson is one of only two pregnancy centers in Kentucky to offer Abortion Pill Reversal. This life-saving process can reverse the abortive effects of the drug mifepristone, which is administered to women in order to induce medical abortions.

This victory earned my daughter and her generation—as well as all Americans—freedom not to be compelled to speak a message with which […]

On the first day of its session, SCOTUS announced that it will hear argument on the constitutionality of a Louisiana law that requires admitting privileges in a local hospital for any doctor performing abortion. It […]
