Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America Candidate Fund announced its endorsement of Darline Graham in South Carolina's U.S. Senate race. A runoff election is scheduled for Tuesday, August 25. "I have gotten to know Darline Graham and I am confident she is 100 percent committed to advocating for unborn children and their mothers in the U.S. Senate. She is already a leader, cut from the same cloth as her brother Sen. Lindsey Graham. One of her first actions was to affirm her support for no fewer than seven pro-life priority bills—from ending federal taxpayer funding of abortion, to stopping deadly abortion drugs and combating forced abortions, to ensuring that expectant moms can find life-affirming information and support and more," said Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of SBA Pro-Life America.

A powerful voice in the pro-life movement is refusing to back down from calling abortion what it is: killing. Live Action is refusing to back down, despite a cease-and-desist letter from the Amplify Legal group claiming that the organization has defamed women who chose to abort their pregnancies. The letter claimed that the organization published "false and defamatory" stories about 13 clients of Amplify. According to Live Action, each of the individuals written about had previously publicly shared about their abortions.

A recent story from People magazine listing more than 60 celebrities "who have shared their abortion stories to help women feel less alone." "The propaganda campaign to make the intentional killing of a preborn baby seem normal is impossible to miss," Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America and Students for Life Action, responded in a social media post. "Abortion should never be celebrated. It should be mourned. Let us pray for healing for every woman impacted by abortion, and keep working until abortion is both illegal and unthinkable."

District Court Judge B. Lynn Winmill ruled that the 14th Amendment's Due Process and Equal Protection clauses allow for the right to an abortion "when a pregnancy threatens the woman's life or health." Winmill said that includes the
mental health of the mother. The heart of the state's pro-life law still stands, even as the judge ruled that, while it may be "troubling" that the state can restrict abortion, the overall law does not violate the state constitution.

A prominent pro-life organization is refusing demands to remove years of abortion-related reporting and to issue sweeping retractions after attorneys representing 13 abortion-rights advocates accused it of publishing false and defamatory claims about their pregnancies. "The answer is 'No,'" attorneys for Live Action wrote in a fiery response. The Thomas More Society, representing Live Action, argues that much of the disputed coverage is constitutionally protected speech, including the organization's use of terms such as "killing" to describe abortion, and signals that it is prepared to defend Live Action in court if the dispute escalates.

Massachusetts joined nine other states and Washington, D.C., by removing all gestational age limits for abortion. Gov. Maura Healey (D-MA) on Monday signed a bill passed by the state legislature at the end of July that allows for elective abortion through all weeks of pregnancy based upon the professional judgment of a medical doctor performing the abortion.

The Massachusetts Senate passed a measure that, if signed by Democratic Gov. Maura Healey, will allow abortions up until birth for any reason. The Senate fast-tracked the bill to avoid the full committee process so the full body could vote on it before the formal session ended. Current state law allows abortion for the first 24 weeks of pregnancy. After that, abortion is allowed only if a physician believes it is necessary to save the mother’s life or her physical or mental health, or if the baby has a lethal fetal anomaly or would not be able to survive outside the womb.

Paul Vaughn has reached a settlement with the federal government after being singled out and targeted by the Biden Department of Justice for his pro-life beliefs. This included a predawn FBI raid on his family’s home and a federal prosecution all stemming from praying, singing hymns, and peacefully protesting at an abortion facility in Tennessee. Vaughn, a devoted Christian father of 11 and pro-life advocate, was among a wave of Americans singled out and prosecuted under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act by the Biden Department of Justice because of their pro-life views. Armed FBI agents descended on his home in the early morning hours, terrifying his family—including his children—in a show of force that was grossly disproportionate to his alleged crime.

New York Attorney General Letitia James alleges that pregnancy help organizations violate state consumer protection laws by telling women about Abortion Pill Reversal (APR), a perfectly legal medical protocol that may help women who regret taking the first drug in a chemical abortion to continue their pregnancies. Heartbeat and its co-plaintiffs have challenged the attorney general’s actions, arguing that the state is violating their constitutional rights by attempting to silence protected speech and restrict women from receiving information about a lawful medical option.

Students for Life of America urged the Environmental Protection Agency to consider regulating levels of the abortion drug mifepristone in drinking water. Mifepristone can enter water supplies when women flush the remains of pre-born children aborted by use of the drug. The pro-life activist group said it submitted a peer-reviewed study published this week in the journal Issues of Law & Medicine for EPA review, as an advisory committee is determining whether to recommend changes to the Safe Drinking Water Act.

A significant pro-life legal battle is unfolding in Missouri, and it demonstrates exactly what's at stake when an abortion amendment is approved and added to a state constitution. At issue is whether states may continue to enforce longstanding health and safety regulations governing abortionists or whether those legal protections will be deemed unconstitutional under adopted state constitutional language. In 2024, Missouri approved Amendment 3, which enshrined abortion in the state constitution. Following its passage, Planned Parenthood filed a legal challenge to invalidate numerous statutes governing abortion.

A federal district court judge issued a preliminary injunction to two Michigan anti-abortion organizations in their challenge to a state employment law that would require them to recruit and hire candidates with beliefs on abortion that do not align with the groups, as well as requiring them to cover abortion care in employee pregnancy benefits plans. The lawsuit, filed by Right to Life of Michigan and the Pregnancy Resource Center in Grand Rapids against Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, the Michigan Department of Civil Rights and members of the Civil Rights Commission, alleges that the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act violates the first amendment protections of these groups by imposing hiring practices on them that go directly against the missions of the organizations.

Lindsey Graham approached every pro-life battle with the tenacity of the Air Force JAG colonel he was. He spent years working to pass the Unborn Victims of Violence Act, first in the House and then the Senate. Enacted after the heartbreaking murder of Laci Peterson and her unborn son Conner, the Act defines “unborn child” as a child in utero at any stage of development and ensures that, when unborn children are injured or killed in a federal crime committed against a pregnant woman, they are recognized as individual victims.

A same-sex Canadian couple is suing the surrogate mother who carried their son after she refused their request to abort the preborn baby over signs of a cleft lip and possible health problems. The dispute began about two years ago when an ultrasound raised concerns about the unborn child’s health. The two men asked the Ontario woman carrying the child to have an abortion at about 22 weeks of pregnancy. She refused.

The Amendment states that born people are a class of citizens, but the word "person" precedes that. So are human beings before birth persons? Pro-life advocates, of course, answer yes. They might respond in the phrasing of famed author Dr. Seuss: "A person's a person, no matter how small." And with good reason. A modern dictionary definition doesn't rule the unborn out.

As the one-year prohibition on certain federal Medicaid payments to abortion providers expires on July 4, National Right to Life expressed deep concern that taxpayer dollars will once again be available to subsidize organizations whose business depends on abortion, including Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider. "The resumption of taxpayer funding for the abortion industry is alarming," said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. "For decades, Americans have objected to being forced to subsidize organizations that profit from abortion."

A proposed amendment to the Delaware state constitution that would codify a right to abortion did not receive a vote in the state House of Representatives on the final day of the legislative calendar. This marked the end of the two-year General Assembly session, ending the bill's prospects for passage for now. The measure passed the Senate in March 2025 by a vote of 15-6, one greater than the two-thirds majority required for a constitutional amendment. Under the Delaware constitution, the bill would have to pass the house by the same majority. It would then have to pass in both houses again after the next general election.

The state of Delaware has agreed to stop enforcing a law requiring pro-life pregnancy centers to inform visitors that they do not have licensed medical professionals on staff amid legal victories for similar centers in other states. The legal nonprofit organization Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) announced that the state has agreed to permanently stop enforcing Senate Bill 300. This development comes more than a year after ADF and the law firm Simms Showers secured a temporary agreement on behalf of National Institute of Family and Life Advocates (NIFLA), a national network of pro-life pregnancy centers, and the Delaware-based pro-life pregnancy center A Door of Hope.
