Brenna Lewis | February 5, 2020
Abortion activists are once again going overboard, this time in Florida they are trying to stop parents from being involved in the decisions their underage, teen daughters make with their unplanned pregnancies. This is the same Florida abortion lobby that employed a lobbyist who supported infanticide, for what it’s worth. So they probably weren’t ready for a large pro-life lobby

No matter who wins tonight, babies will lose. While Students for Life does not advocate for or against any candidate, it’s worth pointing out the tremendous gap between where Americans stand on abortion and where the Democratic candidates stand on abortion.

Brenna Lewis | January 30, 2020
We’ve been critical of Virginia delegate Joshua Cole before, particularly for his pro-abortion views and his association with abusive men like actor Alec Baldwin.
