“It’s both ironic and deeply troubling that Senator Durbin is being honored with a lifetime achievement award while championing policies that literally end lives,” said Kristan Hawkins, President of Students for Life of America. “The Archdiocese of Chicago has a moral responsibility to rescind the award and publicly distance itself from Durbin’s radically anti-Catholic and pro-abortion stance.”  For media inquiries,

You know what they say: if something wild is going to happen, it’ll probably happen at Walmart.  Add a few passionate pro-lifers to the mix, and you’ve got the recipe for a mostly peaceful showdown (peaceful on our end, of course). This week, Students for Life of America (SFLA) turned up the volume with our nationwide “Stop Pharmacy Abortions” protests—an urgent response to the deregulations of the abortion marketplace by the former Biden

After an investigation was launched into Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) in Virginia after staff at Centreville High School allegedly used school funds to arrange abortions for minors without parental consent, California is now facing its own deeply troubling scandal.  A teacher at a Walnut Creek charter school is being sued for allegedly raping and impregnating a female student—and then begging her to get an abortion to protect his

Let’s give the abortion lobby this one: at least they aren’t discriminatory when it comes to celebrating death.   For all their flaws, abortion supporters can be very consistent on their stance. If you (born or preborn) are considered inconvenient, you should die — and then far be it from anyone to mourn. That’s what we’re seeing on campus in the wake of pro-life defender Charlie Kirk’s assassination, anyways.   Recently at Northern Michigan University (NMU), the Students

In a remarkable display of public mourning, approximately 95,000 people, including Students for Life’s own Kristan Hawkins, converged at the State Farm Stadium and its overflow arena outside Phoenix, Arizona, on September 21st, 2025, to honor the life of Charlie Kirk. The conservative activist, millennial leader, and evangelist—whose tragic assassination shook the nation earlier this month—was remembered at a memorial

Sometimes, a woman in need is just a neighborhood away. When a pregnant mother faces a vulnerable moment, the most powerful response is to meet her where she is, not just physically and emotionally—but financially.  After all, the most considerable financial cost associated with babies is diapers. Typically, parents spend between $840 and $1,000 per year per child in the United States. For low-income

Events to Urge Individual Pharmacies & Chains to “Just Say No” to Chemical Abortion Pills “This year, we advanced efforts to defund Planned Parenthood, a Chemical Abortion Pill pusher, engaged in sterilizing treatments and direct abortions. Next up, getting pharmacies to make a stand for preborn babies by committing to never selling Chemical Abortion Pills,” said Students for Life of America President Kristan Hawkins.

“We won’t back down,” said SFLA’s Kristan Hawkins. “When people stop using their free speech rights, perhaps because of fear and intimidation, those rights cease to exist. The Pro-Life Generation will pick up Charlie’s torch and continue his legacy of defending mothers and their children – born and preborn. Look for us on campus.” FOR INTERVIEWS, EMAIL: [email protected] WASHINGTON D.C. (09-17-2025)

“Charlie Kirk dedicated his life to defending free speech and inspiring a generation to speak boldly,” said Students for Life’s Kristan Hawkins. “In his honor, we’re calling on Congress to make October 14th, Charlie’s birthday, a national holiday called Charlie Kirk Free Speech Day. Our highly fractured country needs to remember that peacefully talking with each other represents a foundational
