March for Life Draws Thousands in Washington

WASHINGTON—Thousands of demonstrators participated in the annual March for Life in Washington on Jan. 24 as a new administration takes shape and pro-life advocates continue working toward an end to abortion.

The event marks the 52nd anniversary of the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Roe v. Wade and comes less than three years after the justices overturned it in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health.

“Just because Roe v. Wade is overturned doesn’t mean our job is done yet,” Isabella Garcia, 21, of Georgia, told The Epoch Times at the pre-rally concert.

President Donald Trump, who supported the overturning of Roe v. Wade, addressed the March for Life via video just days after he and Vice President JD Vance took office. A day before the event, Trump pardoned 23 pro-life activists whom the Biden administration had prosecuted for their activities at abortion clinics.
