LIFE IS ON THE LINE: Pro Life Journal Endorses President Trump
Pro Life Journal proudly endorses President Donald J. Trump for the 2024 presidential election. Our commitment to protecting life from the moment of conception aligns with President Trump's historic dedication to the pro-life movement.
It's undeniable: President Trump's first term set an unprecedented standard, making his presidency the most pro-life in our nation's history. He demonstrated exceptional leadership in bringing the nuance of pro-life issues to light and set a new precedent for engaging with our movement.
For example, President Trump was the first sitting president to attend the annual March for Life. Addressing the crowd, he stated, "As the Bible tells us, each person is wonderfully made... We’re here for a very simple reason: to defend the right of every child, born and unborn, to fulfill their God-given potential."
One of his first actions in office was reinstating the Mexico City Policy, which prevents U.S. tax dollars from funding international organizations that perform or promote abortions. This policy was reversed by Joe Biden within a week of taking office.
His executive orders, and his support for critical legislation like the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, show his real dedication to protecting life. In 2017, he also expressed strong support for the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act, which would have effectively codified the Hyde Amendment and prohibited federal funding for abortions.
His judicial appointments have been enormously consequential. By appointing Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, he became the sole reason Roe v. Wade was finally overturned - An accomplishment sought by our movement for decades.
We firmly endorse President Trump's running mate, J.D. Vance. J.D.'s record on pro-life issues is exemplary. He has never shied away from making his positions known:
Eliminating abortion is first and foremost about protecting the unborn, but it’s also about making our society more pro-child and pro-family. The historic Dobbs decision puts this new era of society into motion, one that prioritizes family and the sanctity of all life.
He was quick to defend a pro-life father arrested by the Biden administration's Department of Justice:
What happened to Mark Houck is vile--arrested in front of his children because he advocates passionately for life. We need answers from FBI leadership about who decided to prosecute an innocent man.
As a U.S. Senator, Vance has consistently supported legislation aimed at protecting the unborn. He co-sponsored the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act and the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act.
In contrast, the current administration under President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris has aggressively pursued policies that promote unrestricted access to abortion, including taxpayer-funded procedures and efforts to enshrine abortion in federal law.
The recent assassination attempt on President Trump is a sobering reminder of how crucial he is to our movement. He has become a beacon of hope for millions of pro-life Americans for his challenge to the status quo. After what happened in Butler, the extraordinary lengths to which his enemies will go has never been more clear.
Pro Life Journal firmly believes that President Trump's re-election will catalyze an even greater evolution for the pro-life movement. His first term not only reshaped the national conversation but reinvigorated Americans to honor the inherent worth of every individual, born or unborn. With his continued leadership, we anticipate an era of further unprecedented advancements in protecting and dignifying life.
