Marching for Life
President Ronald Reagan wrote in 1986:
Respect for the sanctity of human life has not died in America.
Far from it. With every passing year it shines ever more brightly in the hearts of more and more of our citizens as they come to see the issue with greater clarity in all of its dimensions. As we carry this message to our courts, our legislatures, and our fellow citizens, let us never be discouraged. … May we soon rejoice in the day when reverence for human life is enshrined as surely in our laws as in our hearts.
Later today, hundreds of thousands of people will descend on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., for the annual March for Life.
Crowds are expected to exceed last year’s 400,000 participants, to walk a now-familiar route to the steps of the Supreme Court to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Roe v. Wadedecision that, along with an accompanying ruling in Doe v. Bolton, legalized abortion-on-demand across the United States.
The official theme of this year’s march is “40 = 55M.” It’s an equation meant to reflect the enormous cost of 40 years under the ethic of Roe: Since the Supreme Court’s decision in 1973, an estimated 55 million abortions have been performed.
