Americans United for Life is celebrating International Human Rights Day! đ
Today, we celebrate humanity and proclaim that all humans around the world are valuable and worthy of unalienable rights, especially the human right to life. Regardless of race, ethnicity, nationality, citizenship, s*x, gender, or any other identity or characteristic, all human beings have the basic right to live. It is recognized around the world that we, the human species, have a moral obligation to protect human life.
It's time for our laws to reflect modern science. View AUL model bills and guides at aul.org/law-and-policy/

Americans United for Life works in all 50 states and the District of Columbia to advance the human right to life through culture, law, and policy - and we have seen nation-shaping results! In the past year:
-The U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade with their decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Womenâs Health Organization. AULâs own Clarke Forsythe was cited by Justice Samuel Alito in the decision.
-We've seen life win at the federal level as judges dismiss pro-abortion lawsuits and affirm lifesaving laws.
-While previously restricted by Roe, thirteen states prepared conditional laws to abolish abortion. These laws were activated once the Supreme Court overruled Roe and returned the abortion issue to the democratic process.
-Just since Dobbs, state lawmakers passed 28 pro-life laws that safeguard womenâs health and safety, abolish abortion, enhance conscience rights, protect unborn children against disability-selective abortions, and expand social welfare support for pregnant women and young families.
Make no mistake: your support of Americans United for Life is saving lives, every day. And together, we'll do even more in the year to come.
This Giving Tuesday, every gift to AUL will be matched! If youâve contemplated supporting our work with a gift this fall, now is the time: aul.org/give

We are embarking on a new era in the Pro-Life movement, despite the turbulent midterms. Read AUL's post-election statement here.
Americans United for Life congratulates the numerous pro-life candidates who achieved victory at the ballot box in this yearâs midterm elections. Senate leaders like Sen. Marco Rubio and newly-minted Sen. J.D. Vance are powerful voices for the human right to life. And in the states, Gov. Kristi No...
Using the example of "Abortion Pill Right to Know" legislation, Americans United for Life walks you through how a Pro-Life bill becomes law.
Finally, some sanity from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Providers offering abortion pills are going rouge.
The agency says itâs concerned the practice could endanger patientsâ health.

The current Biden administration is pushing abortion on demand through various federal channels.
Americans United for Life is standing for life on the federal level and pushing back against the radical idea that VA hospitals can offer abortions in pro-life states. A new VA proposal is in defiance of life-affirming state legislation. Congress itself has prohibited the VA from providing abortions.
See our recent comment that was filed here:
Americans United for Life filed a comment yesterday in opposition to the Veterans Affairs (VA) Interim Final Rule (IFR), âReproductive Health Services.â

Prenatal surgery is amazing! Prenatal
On April 26, 1992 a baby was born to parents that did not want him.
Fortunately for that child, they chose to give him up for adoption instead of choosing abortion. One day after he was born he was adopted by Patty and Wayne Judge who went on to love him and raise him the same as if he was born to them. This 30 yr old, 6 foot 7, 282 lb man could very well have just been an aborted statistic, but because his birth parents chose life for their son, a man of strong character has become the perfect role model for a generation that is sorely in need of one.
Last night this man tied the record for the most home runs without cheating in a season. In the next 7 games, he has the chance to break the record as well as win the triple crown.

Hey, YouTube. Abortion is not healthcare. Take your "context" off our videos!
Bi-partisan MOMS fight to know if their underage daughters are obtaining abortions. Great to see a stand for parental rights in Minnesota Abortion Law! Good news. Grateful for our friends at Minnesota Family Council
Young girls, often well under 18 years old, are not equipped to undergo the physical, emotional, and psychological burden of abortion. What parent would want their daughter to go through the trauma of teen pregnancy alone?
Get ready to celebrate 8 billion humans! đđŁ

"I was proud to stand alongside Sen. Lindsey Graham in Washington today to endorse the âProtecting Pain-Capable Unborn Children from Late-Term Abortions Act.â Advancing this important Act is common sense, and we should unite as Democrats and Republicans to pass this legislation just as Congress did on Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act a generation ago" - Americans United for Life President and CEO, Catherine Glenn Foster

Planned Parenthood's annual report highlights its "Reason" for existing: profiting off killing pre-born humans through abortion.
âPlanned Parenthoodâs annual report is titled âHere for a Reasonâ and their own data shows that reason is abortion. Planned Parenthoodâs callous disregard for those less fortunate is evident when you consider they performed fewer than 3,000 cases of miscarriage care and fewer than 2,000 adoption referrals in an entire year but performed almost 400,000 abortions on vulnerable women and girls.â - Nichole C.

Americans United for Life stands with our Pro-Life allies calling on Law Enforcement and Media to stop ignoring the violent attacks being carried out against Pro-Lifers since Roe's fall.
The Religious Freedom Institute (RFI) commissioned a former FBI counter-terrorism and intelligence expert to assess recent crimes against pro-life institutions, and the prospects for future attacks, in the wake of the Dobbs decision.
Senate Republicans have introduced federal legislation to ban abortion after 15 weeks! This is a wonderful step in the right direction for America.
End infanticide.
Pro-life congressional candidates are right to focus on ending the barbaric practice of late-term abortion in America.
Pro-abortion logic is flawed and they know it. Science is on our side, let's keep up the momentum!
Asking for a friend.
Congratulations Tennessee!
Two abortion businesses are shutting their doors while another plans to relocate to Bristol, Virginia. Two intend to remain open without offering abortions.

"The Acting Attorney General of South Dakota completely fails to inform voters" - Steven H. Aden, Chief Legal Officer & General Counsel at Americans United for Life
The Acting Attorney General of South Dakota has completely failed to inform voters of the radical pro-abortion intent of the proposed amendment.
Congratulations Georgia! Their new law recognizes humans in the womb stating âany unborn child with a detectable human heartbeatâ can be claimed as a dependent, providing a $3,000 tax exemption for each pregnancy!

Georgiaâs abortion ban counts a fetus as a person. And now, so does its tax code. The stateâs Department of Revenue announced this week that âany unborn child with a detectable human heartbeatâ can be claimed as dependent, providing a $3,000 tax exemption for each pregnancy within a househol...
The Washington D.C. City Council continues to advance its radical pro-abortion agenda.
Read the latest from the AUL blog:
The Enhancing Reproductive Health Protection Amendment Act of 2022 was introduced about six weeks prior to the Dobbs leak and expands the âZoneâ of government noninterference in reproductive health decisions created by the DC code.
Carolyn McDonnell, staff counsel at Americans United for Life, told the Register that, recently, âin at least 11 states, abortionists have raised the argument that the state constitution protects abortion as a right.â With the Bluegrass State amendment, âKentucky is trying to prevent that,â McDonnell said. âTheyâre trying to say that the state constitution does not obviously protect abortion.â
McDonnell pointed to recent pro-life success in this area, including a case in Iowa in June, just ahead of the Dobbs ruling, where the state Supreme Court overruled âtheir previous decision, saying there is no fundamental right to abortion under the state constitution.â
She said that in the wake of Roe being overturned, Montana has raised a challenge to the supposed right to abortion in the state constitution, and âwhat theyâre saying there is because Dobbs is gone, some of that legal reasoning that the state court had relied upon is now gone, as well.â

What the failure of the âValue Them Bothâ Amendment could mean for the midterm elections and other state initiatives.
"The result in Kansas is a sobering reminder that the path to a future America undivided over an imagined right to destroy our children in the womb will be long and fraught with setbacks.
We are in it for the long haul, as we were for the nearly fifty years it took to reverse Roe. We know that when people see what abortion does, we turn away from it. No amount of political spending or astroturfing a misinformed "abortion movement" can change that."
