Thousands of Abortion Foes Set for March for Life in Washington
The Washington Post’s Michelle Boorstein reports that despite the freezing temperatures, tens of thousands of abortion opponents will march up Capitol Hill for the 41st annual March for Life on Wednesday. March President Jeanne Monahan said this year’s march is about reaching out to a new generation of activists by appearing less partisan and more empathetic toward pregnant mothers. “You walk up Capitol Hill and you can’t see the end of the crowd, it’s an ocean,” said Kathryn Brown, a student from Benedictine College. “The amazing thing is, they aren’t there because they’re mad at the government, they’re there out of love, sacrificing themselves in the cold out of love.”
