"We Chose Life" Webcast
Students for Life Invites Media, Congress, and Voters to Hear the Other Side of the Kate Cox Story: Life-Affirming Choices For the Hard Cases
Tuesday, March 5th at 2:00pm ET
On Tuesday, March 5th, guests on the "WE CHOSE LIFE" Webcast will share stories often untold when it comes to hard cases like the one Kate Cox has shared nationwide, set to be featured during President Biden’s State of the Union address.
Though her life was not in danger, Cox sought an abortion in Texas when her child was diagnosed with Trisomy 18 and eventually left the state to have an abortion. Since then, Cox’ story has been used to demand expanded abortion policies without any discussion of what a life-affirming choice or life-affirming medical care could look like. On this webcast, you will hear THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORY.

“Parents like me need to talk about what choosing life looks like.”
SFLA President Kristan Hawkins observed that confronting the pressure to abort when facing a fetal diagnosis can be overwhelming, as she knows from personal experience as her own family was growing and two of her four children were diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. “Parents like me need to talk about what choosing life looks like,” she said. “The Pro-Life Generation rejects prejudice against people based on age, sex, race, stage of development, parental income, perceptions of abilities, or the events of conception. We reject shaming people for things out of their control. We reject the assumption that an early death by abortion is the only choice, and to counter that pressure, we need to tell life-affirming stories.”
