Lila Rose Speaks to Thousands at March For Life in DC

After the fall of Roe, the movement continues to fight for justice for preborn babies.

Washington, D.C. – Today, at the Annual National March for Life,  Lila Rose, founder and president of Live Action, shared the following comments to tens of thousands of supporters: 

“All of you here, all of you, have the power to change minds: at the dinner table, on campuses, at soccer games. You can change minds! You are the voice for those who have no voice.  Remember, the science is on our side. Natural law is on our side. The truth is on our side. 

We must simply have the courage to speak the truth with love. Courage is contagious. One change of heart can save a life.

We must also speak the truth to our elected officials. We can start by demanding that they defund Planned Parenthood! It’s time. Give that $700 million to pregnancy resource centers instead. And most importantly, we must urge our elected officials to abolish abortion. Abolishing abortion is the most important human rights cause of our time. One million of our unborn brothers and sisters are killed every year by abortion.

I am so inspired by the incredible love and heroism of Joan Bell, who I believe is here today, and all the other amazing pro-life activists who were granted their freedom yesterday thanks to President Trump and Vice President JD Vance. Thank you, Vice President Vance and President Trump. 

We can usher in a new golden age for America when we protect every life from the moment of conception. This is our moment. I am so proud of all of you and I’m so proud of what our nation is and will become by God’s grace. Make America pro-life again! Thank you.”

Rose spoke alongside newly elected Vice President JD Vance and other prominent pro-life voices, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and professional surfer Bethany Hamilton. Tens of thousands of people from around the country marched in the annual event to raise awareness of the millions of children killed by abortion in America.
