| Subject: March for Life taking place as Roe faces potential end nearly 50 years after landmark decision Fri Jan 21, 2022 4:30 pm | |
| The March for Life began in response to the decision in landmark abortion case Roe v. Wade
Thousands of activists are expected to descend on Washington, D.C., to continue pro-lifers' decades-long protest of the Supreme Court's landmark abortion decision in Roe v. Wade.
The March for Life, which started the same year as the 1973 decision in Roe, will go on, as usual, for the 49th time, but Friday's march stands out among others. Activists will once again march to the Supreme Court as it's expected to overturn or at least weaken Roe with a ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, a case viewed as pro-lifers' best hope in decades.
The march will kick off with a rally at noon ET on the National Mall. Among the various speakers are actor Kirk Cameron, Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., and Down Syndrome Advocate Katie Shaw. Grammy-nominated singer Matthew West is also expected to perform. A pre-rally is scheduled for 11 a.m. ET. According to WJLA, the march could draw an estimated 50,000 activists.
