Fox News reports that faith leaders and many others attend the event each year and talk about the importance of fighting for the unborn, even as they have chopped up a significant win with the Supreme Court decision on June 24, 2022, that overturned Roe v Wade and allowed the states to create their abortion laws.
Patrick Purtill, director of legislative affairs for the Faith & Freedom Coalition, sent an e-mail to Fox News Digital that stated: “This year’s March for Life was a hopeful sight,” and “Even in a post-Roe world, there was a large crowd dominated by young, joyful advocates for life.”
