March for Life Marks 49th Anniversary of Roe v. Wade

Pro-life advocates gathered in the nation's capital on Friday, Jan 21 to participate in the annual March for Life. This year's march marked the 49th anniversary of the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision. This year, marchers had reason to believe that their goal to have the radically pro-abortion decision overturned might soon come true.

The country awaits the Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which directly challenges Roe's precedent. If the court chooses to overturn Roe, which prevents states from restricting abortion before 24 weeks gestation, then the ability to regulate abortion will be returned to the states.
