Why do we march?
We march each January because the movement and moment gives voice to those who have no voice at all.
We march because it’s always right to fight and try to right a wrong – and it’s always wrong to stay silent when the rights of others are being trampled.
We march to call attention to the injustices of the last half-century and put those who champion the unfettered killing of babies on the defensive.
We march so that a future generation of women will not be enslaved to live lives of regret.
We march because we believe abortion is erasing the future and eliminating boys and girls who would grow up to become men and women who would cure cancer, invent life-saving technologies, solve impossible problems, compose symphonies and help create a more beautiful culture and society.
We march to show the world there is a better way. We march to remind the world every child is a wanted one, and every child will someday mean the world to somebody.
We march to make a difference and proclaim that life is better than death.
We march because doing something is better than doing nothing.
As I told a reporter last week, we cannot predict or guarantee the outcome of the pending Supreme Court case – but if we pray and work towards a culture of life, we can deserve the outcome when the day of rejoicing comes.
