Kristi Hamrick | September 2, 2021
“The Supreme Court is taking baby steps toward the obvious conclusion that aborting babies by the millions is not a Constitutional ‘right,’” said Students for Life Action President Kristan Hawkins. “Today’s news is a wakeup call for Corporate Abortion that has hidden a predatory and barbaric business behind claims of Constitutional cover.” UPDATE: The Texas Supreme Court has delivered yet

Kristan Hawkins | August 4, 2021
In Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the Supreme Court will consider—for the first time since Roe v. Wade—allowing state abortion bans based on gestational limits.

Samantha Kamman | July 8, 2021
Many media outlets treat the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) as an impartial resource on abortion — as if citing the group somehow adds legitimacy to the pro-choice position. For example, Slate referenced the ACOG while reporting on a January Supreme Court ruling that upheld a district court decision to continue requiring in-person visits for chemical abortions.

Kristi Hamrick | June 23, 2021
“The Supreme Court has made it clear that school officials cannot stalk students off campus to punish them for non-violent speech. In this case, it’s the adults who acted like ‘snowflakes,’ falling apart when they did not like a cheerleader’s frustrations,” said SFLA/SFLAction’s Kristan Hawkins. WASHINGTON D.C.
