Brenna Lewis | March 23, 2021
Right now, the Supreme Court of the United States is deliberating picking up the case Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, an abortion case out of Mississippi. The Justices have been stalling big time. And that’s because this case is a really big deal. According to SCOTUS Blog, this is Dobbs v. Jackson in a nutshell: Issues: (1) Whether all

Everything You Need to Know About Roe v. Wade

On January 22, 1973, seven men on the U.S. Supreme Court struck down more than 30 state bans on abortion, and legalized abortion in all 9 months of pregnancy, for whatever reason, across the United States. Regardless of whether you know their names, these historic decisions, Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, have affected your life. Abortion advocates argue that legal

Did We Just Agree with an Abortion Activist?

Mary Ziegler is a law professor at Florida State University College of Law and serves as the “intellectual thought leader” on abortion law and policy (on the pro-abortion side). In light of Arkansas’s recent near-total abortion ban, Ziegler penned an op ed that ran on CNN this week and contains many themes that will likely be echoed by other abortion

There’s a lot of uncertainty surrounding the U.S Supreme Court right now. Yes, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a champion for pro-life women, was confirmed but the continued swirls of whether President Biden will “pack” the court with abortion supporting justices is another question. Meanwhile, there’s a series of abortion-related cases that may be heard by SCOTUS this year. CBSNEWS

Even Without In-Person Demonstrations, LIFE is Still Winning

I stand for Life because I see the hurt and pain that is caused by abortion. Abortion increases the risk of breast cancer by 50% in women whose first pregnancy ends in abortion. A study by Americans United for Life “found that women whose first pregnancies ended in abortion were 65 percent more likely to score in the ‘high risk’ range for clinical depression.” Women who face an

Why do Roe and Doe Matter? In 1973 Roe v. Wade along with its companion case Doe v. Bolton were decided on the same day, allowing abortion on demand in the United States. Through a constitutional “right to privacy” Roe enabled unrestricted abortions with no exceptions or regulations, while Doe legalized abortion on demand for the full nine months

Some Humans Worth Less Than Others? Where Have We Seen This Before…

Abortion supporters shriek in terror at the thought that very soon Roe v. Wade could be reversed. Their propaganda says newly-confirmed Justice Amy Coney Barrett is coming for their “healthcare”. Someone ought to tell them that medicine is about saving lives, not ending them. It’s easy to second guess your views when half the country sees this as the

Democratic Proposals to Alter the Court Continue to Be Terrifying
Brenna Lewis | October 23, 2020
Unfortunately, Thursday’s presidential debate failed to mention the issue of court packing; the American people were once more denied full transparency when it comes to knowing just how much Joe Biden would transform the courts. We’ve written plenty before about Democratic proposals to pack the Supreme Court, though, because there is plenty at stake. It doesn’t help that Joe Biden

What Reversing Roe v. Wade Means (and Doesn’t Mean)
Brenna Lewis | October 20, 2020
The 1973 Supreme Court case that legalized abortion on demand through all nine months and for any reason (alongside its companion case, Doe v. Bolton) is known as Roe v. Wade. The only reason abortion up until birth is not the law of the land in every state is thanks to states’ abilities to enact their own abortion limits… though late-term abortion is the
