Abolishing Abortion, Advocating for Life

The Dobbs decision overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, but what now? The fight to protect and advocate for the lives of unborn children has changed dramatically, shifting from a more national focus to a greater focus on individual states. But what strategy is best?

Those questions bear careful attention, as do the contributing factors that continue to fuel abortion. This month, we will address many of these issues, as we seek abortion’s abolition and advocate for the life of the unborn.
