  • The Crisis of Too Few Births
    Our friends in Britain may have crossed a very dangerous line. In what is being described as a demographic turning point, they are projected to have more deaths than births in 2026.  
    Unfortunately, experts anticipate this trend will continue throughout the decade and potentially force Britain into a population decline by 2050. 
    Britain is not alone in this struggle. As we have documented, around the world countless nations are facing a similar problem. Not enough children are being born to replace the current population. All the while many of the nations facing this population crisis are actively aborting hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of children. 
    Children are the world’s most valuable resources, not the source of the world’s problems. The most logical first step to reversing the population crisis is to end abortion.

  • The Dehumanization Continues
    Planned Parenthood and abortion advocates have spent years devising new ways to dehumanize the unborn. They have called these precious children everything from parasites, to cancerous, to the products of conception.  
    Now, in a Planned Parenthood blog post, the unborn are being compared to dryer lint. 
    The blog is intended to prepare women for their chemical abortions and assures them that they will know it is complete when they see their baby, which according to Planned Parenthood, looks like dryer lint. 
    Women who have taken the deadly chemical abortion pill tell a very different story. They report seeing their child, with her little arms, legs, fingers, and toes. These babies in the womb are made in the image of God; they are precious and deserve the right to life.

  • Hiding the Truth
    The abortion industry fights desperately to hide the truth. In fact, their entire business model is built around keeping the public misinformed.  
    Now, New Mexico Governor Michelle Grisham has signed a bill which eliminates the state’s requirement for abortion facilities to report data. 
    The state is already a pro-abortion sanctuary with 14 facilities and no gestational limits on abortion.  
    Previously, New Mexico law required that abortionists file a report within five days of an abortion. Now the state has gone dark. New Mexico has recently become a hotbed of abortion tourism, with 71% of all abortions reported in 2023 coming from out-of-state residents. Truth and transparency are the enemies of abortion.

  • Victory for life in Kenya
    A major pro-life victory has come from Kenya, where the Court of Appeal overturned a previous ruling that had declared abortion a constitutional right. The judges ruled that abortion is not a fundamental right under Kenya’s constitution and reaffirmed protections for the unborn child’s right to life.  
    The decision reverses a 2022 lower court ruling and restores the constitutional balance many faith leaders and pro-life advocates said had been distorted. Kenya’s law still allows limited exceptions in certain emergency circumstances, but the court made clear there is no broad constitutional right to abortion on demand.  
    This case matters far beyond Kenya. It shows that nations around the world the fight  
    For life rages on.

  • Health Swiss Woman Euthanized
    Wendy Duffy, a 56-year-old British woman was described as physically healthy. Yet she traveled to the Pegasos clinic in Switzerland to end her life. 
    You might think that officials would refuse to kill someone who is healthy but unfortunately, they did not. 
    Following the death of her son, she became suicidal and even attempted to take her own life. After she failed, she saw a documentary about someone else who had been euthanized under similar circumstances.  
    Around the world euthanasia and assisted suicide continue to take the lives of vulnerable people who need love and support, not a lethal injection. Euthanasia is not merciful; it is not humane. It is a horrific devaluation of the sanctity of life.

  • Congressman Gill Grills Abortion Advocate
    Abortion advocates love to hide behind euphemisms and slogans, while avoiding the horrific truth of what abortion truly is.
    Congressman Brand Gill from Texas went viral on social media last week for grilling a pro-abortion advocate during a judiciary hearing.
    Gill asked Jessica Waters, a scholar at American University, what her favorite kind of abortion is. When she refused to give a clear answer, the congressman began to read in great medical detail, exactly what is done in various forms of abortion.
    Faced with the gruesome details, Waters struggled to respond to the congressman who made clear just how barbaric abortion is. Her default response was, "I’m an advocate for patients having access to the full realm of reproductive healthcare,"
    What she means, is she supports the killing of innocent children in the womb.

  • Born Fighting: 22-Week Preemie Defies the Odds
    A remarkable story from Dubai is reminding the world that even the smallest babies can fight for life. Baby Talia was born at just 22 weeks and five days gestation, weighing only 400 grams, less than one pound. Doctors say she is the youngest premature baby ever recorded to survive in the United Arab Emirates.  
    Born at the very edge of viability, Talia spent 129 days in intensive care facing infection risks and serious medical challenges. Yet through expert treatment, perseverance, and the love of her family, she grew stronger each day and has now gone home thriving.  
    Stories like this matter because they reveal a simple truth: unborn children are patients, human beings, and fighters.

  • Supreme Court Sides with First Choice Pregnancy Centers
    The U.S. Supreme Court has handed down a unanimous decision protecting free speech and donor privacy for a pro-life pregnancy center in New Jersey. In First Choice Women’s Resource Centers v. Platkin, the justices ruled the ministry can challenge a sweeping subpoena that demanded donor names, contact information, and internal records.  
    Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote that government demands for private donor information can burden constitutional rights. That means pro-life groups do not have to wait until state officials fully enforce intimidation tactics before seeking relief in federal court.  
    This case matters nationwide. Pregnancy centers provide diapers, counseling, ultrasounds, and material support to mothers in need.

  • New Documentary Highlights Declining Birth Rates
    A new documentary is sounding the alarm on a growing global crisis: declining birth rates. Filmmaker Stephen Shaw warns that population collapse may be one of the most serious challenges facing the world today. 
    As we have documented in our research, nearly all Western countries are now below replacement-level fertility, and many people who hoped to have children simply never do.  
    Shaw points to a culture that increasingly delays or deprioritizes family, leaving many facing unplanned childlessness later in life.  
    As we face this looming population crisis, we continue to kill more than a million innocent babies each year in the womb. Nearly one third of Gen Z was killed via abortion. The first and most obvious step to reversing our population decline is to end abortion.

  • Pro-Life Christians Continue to Adopt
    Christians have been shown to adopt children at more than double the rate of the general population. Unfortunately, during the Biden administration Christian families faced bureaucratic hurdles aimed at preventing them from fostering or adopting.
    Families were required to support LGBTQ identities, largely excluding faithful Christians. Secretary Kennedy stated that the Biden ruling, “dramatically constricted the pool of available parents.”
    Due in part to the reversal of the rule, the number of children in the foster system has dropped by roughly 100,000!
    Despite what abortion advocates may claim, adopting children is not a necessary prerequisite to be truly pro-life. However, pro-lifers do just so happen to be the ones leading the way in the national effort to adopt children and give them loving families.
