The annual march marks the anniversary of<em> Roe v.

Young high school students \u200bbuilt a snowman while others of \u200dall ages gathered in joy to\u2063 witness \u200band celebrate the beauty of \u2062life. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>While thousands gathered to hear a variety of speeches, a video \u2064played on repeat,\u200d speaking to how\u2064 the death and darkness of abortion will only end with an approach of hope and love. Those gathered\u2063 were invited to be the light in the darkness,\u200c and \u200ba voice for unborn babies who have no voice. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote><p>The video also referenced, as did many\u2064 speakers at the rally, that the overturn\u200c of <em>Roe\u2062 v. Wade <\/em>was a big\u200b step but that much \u200cis still to \u2064be done, promising to \u201cnot stop marching until \u2062abortion is unthinkable.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe are \u200bnot done. We\u2062 will keep marching every January at the\u200c national level, as\u200d well as in our states, until\u2064 our \u2064nation\u2019s laws reflect \u2062the\u2062 basic truth that all human life is created equal and is worthy\u200b of protection,\u201d said\u2064 March for \u200bLife\u2064 President Jeanne Mancini. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-890dd1682ec59a18a5bb40fa033b0dbe fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-6\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-890dd1682ec59a18a5bb40fa033b0dbe\"><\/div>\n<blockquote><p>House Speaker Mike \u2064Johnson, R-La., gave the opening remarks. He spoke about how the birth certificate of America, the Declaration of\u200b Independence, bluntly \u2063references the fact that our rights do \u2063not come from the government but from our Creator. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Johnson also noted that his existence \u2064was the result of an unplanned\u200b pregnancy. His parents were teenagers when they found out they were\u2062 pregnant. Johnson\u200d showed gratitude \u2062to his parents for choosing life, expressing \u2064just how \u2063blessed he was for that decision. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Jean Marie Davis, executive director of Branches Pregnancy \u200bResource Center, \u200dand single\u2063 mom and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Navigating-Impossible-Survival-Pregnancy-Motherhood\/dp\/B0B92GMRBK\/ref=sr_1_1?crid=BJ8HBOTCDN56&#038;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.GAZpK_J_aRENlhwclMkQGhNT-f3uJ0kO1swZc-HieV4.GMJNZA0HXuBGgolSxuAVM9_nEKxyNo1CUesJOBJI0zY&#038;dib_tag=se&#038;keywords=%E2%80%9CImpossible%E2%80%9D%3A+A+Survival+Guide+for+Single+Moms+From+Pregnancy+Through+the+First+Year+of+Motherhood&#038;qid=1705783993&#038;sprefix=impossible+a+survival+guide+for+single+moms+from+pregnancy+through+the+first+year+of+motherhood%2Caps%2C105&#038;sr=8-1\">author<\/a> \u200cAisha\u2064 Taylor, both spoke at \u2063the rally about\u2064 how pregnancy \u200dresource centers saved the\u2063 lives of their children. When they needed help and had nowhere to go,\u2063 they reached out\u200d to one of these \u200bcenters and were given a \u2062similar message: \u201cHow can we help you\u200b and support \u2063you?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Both women noted that those conversations \u2063helped them to have the courage to keep their baby and not get an \u2064abortion. Now\u200d they could never consider\u200b life\u200c without their unplanned children. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-cb595a7cdd1502a0fecf3cc9ec7aa1ce fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-10\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-cb595a7cdd1502a0fecf3cc9ec7aa1ce\"><\/div>\n<blockquote><p>There are over 2,700 pregnancy centers around the country. While the\u200b Biden\u2064 administration desires to decrease their funding, these centers save lives every year and\u200c support mothers \u200cwith over $300 \u200bmillion of donations in diapers,\u2063 clothing, baby formula, and \u200cother necessities. Keeping these\u2063 facilities open and available\u200d while championing the good they do was a clear message from\u2064 the rally. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>University of Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh, who just clinched the national\u2062 college football championship\u2062 a few weeks ago, also shared some words at the rally. \u201cThis is a great day\u200c for a\u2062 march. It is football weather,\u201d Harbaugh said, before noting what\u2062 a great witness to the sanctity of life is being\u2063 set by the thousands gathered. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/01\/19\/um-coach-jim-harbaugh-champions-right-to-life-following-football-championship\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">[READ: UM Coach Jim Harbaugh Champions Right To Life Following Football Championship]<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Once the \u200dwalk to the Capitol building and Supreme Court began, thousands \u2064of pro-lifers filled \u200cthe streets. Along the route,\u2064 you could visibly see groups wearing \u200bcolor-coordinated scarves and hats. There were groups from Michigan, New \u200bJersey, Texas, Indiana, New York and \u2063countless others who had traveled\u2062 across the\u200b country \u200dto\u200d march. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote><p>Along the\u200c way, \u200cyou could hear some groups\u2062 praying\u200b the \u2063rosary while others sang songs and some led chants in support of the \u200dpro-life cause. Not long into the route, \u200ca\u200b bright yellow sign caught my eye: \u201cCaution genocide content ahead.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Soon there was \u2062a\u200c massive \u200btelevision in\u2062 sight showing pictures \u200bof aborted \u200cbabies. There\u200b was even a recording of a\u2064 baby crying during\u200d an abortion. As \u200ba father of two, this was the most jarring part of \u2064the event. It was \u200bexplicit and real. But it was true. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>The reason why so many made their way through the bitter cold and snow to walk the streets of the nation\u2019s capital was encapsulated by the chants, songs,\u2062 and\u2064 images of the day. Those \u2063who\u2062 marched love life. They love families and \u2064they love\u2063 babies. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Speaking \u2064to\u200b some participants on this cold day\u200d their messages\u200b were similar. \u201cWe come to\u2064 give voice to the \u200bvoiceless.
