Vice President JD Vance address Tens of thousands of pro-life advocates at Friday's 52nd annual March for Life march in the nation's capital protested that the American government has failed struggling mothers, families, and unborn children in the past. , change is not just on the horizon, it is underway.
After pro-life supporters trembled through numerous speakers, including House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, they finally heard from President Donald Trump via video message. I heard this from the physical Vance.
More than 20 pro-life activists targeted by the Biden Justice Department were pardoned on Thursday. Thank you to Life's supporters.
“We march and proclaim the sacred truth that every child is a miracle and comes to life.”
After paying attention to it Roev. Wade Beaten with the help of Supreme Court justices he appointed to the high court, Trump said in his second term, “We will stand proudly for families and lives again. Democrats We are seeking a federal right to have unlimited abortion on demand, even after birth.”
Trump, the first sitting president to attend March for Life, also pledged to help and protect new mothers, young families and vulnerable children. Adoption and foster care support. Bringing to justice extremists who carry out attacks on churches and life-sustaining pregnancy centers.
Following Trump's televised remarks, Vance took to the stage and identified the reason for the march. “We march to protect the unborn. We march to live and proclaim the sacred truth that every child is a miracle and gift from God.”
He added to his list of reasons, noting that some may be just as important, yet not as obvious as others.
“We want happier children in our country.”
“I reiterate that the challenge of our movement is to protect innocent lives, and that is to protect the unborn,” Vance added.
The Catholic vice president's message reflected many of the themes and proposals of Pope John Paul II to the public evangelium vitaediscussed the perversion of the concept of freedom, the exaltation of the “isolated individual in an absolute way,” and the technology-facilitated devaluation of life under a “culture of death.”
Vance lamented the historic failure of American society and government to “help young people in moments of despair,” and hedonistic, utilitarian views prevailed nationwide.
“We have failed a generation by not only demanding a culture of abortion, but also by failing to help young parents achieve the materials they need to live happy and meaningful lives.” the vice president said. “A culture of radical individualism took hold – one in which the responsibilities and joys of family life were seen as obstacles to be overcome rather than as personal fulfillment and personal blessings.”
After stating the obvious, “We want more babies in the United States of America. We want more happy children in our country. And beautiful young men and young women who want to welcome them into the world and raise them.” Vance stressed that the government's role moving forward is to make it easier for Americans to have children and see them as a blessing rather than an inconvenience.
Vance further signaled that the Trump administration will work to cultivate a culture of celebrating life at all levels, which is part of family policy such as improvements to the child tax credit.
vance said CBS News' August Margaret Brennan wanted to see a child tax credit of $5,000 per child. If you have a baby, you want to reduce your housing costs so you actually have a place to raise that baby. ”
Vance mentioned potential government relief in his speech Friday, but he identified work already being done to move the needle by hardworking Americans across the country: Donate to a bank. You help find housing for someone in need. You fund a crisis pregnancy. A center that gives help to young women and young men in times of crisis.
Vance said his supporters believe the relentless fight to protect unborn children “allows us to stand here and say that America is fundamentally a nation of pro-country, pro-life, and family.” We will make it possible.”
