An Idaho mother who received life-saving care from doctors during a severe pregnancy complication pushed back against pro-abortion talking points in a powerful column published by Live Action last week. Valerie Abraham, mother of four living children and wife of a trauma physician, wrote about being rushed into the emergency room and receiving life-saving care while eighteen weeks pregnant. When she went into premature labor and delivered her baby girl, Valerie said she and her husband "held her, prayed with her, and treasured every minute of her brief life." Though the baby girl died after just 43 minutes, Valerie said she lived and died with dignity. According to Valerie, doctors treated both her and her baby as patients deserving of care. Valerie said she is voting "no" on Proposition 1, a ballot initiative that would enshrine abortion into Idaho's state constitution, this November. She said Idaho's current laws protect both moms and babies, rejecting accusations that the laws endanger women like herself who experience serious pregnancy complications. 👉 Read the full article here: ortl.org/idaho-mom-defends-s… ✅ Don't miss an article!

Unborn babies are being saved across Oregon thanks to the Knights of Columbus' program to equip pro-life pregnancy resource centers with ultrasound machines. The project, launched by the Knights of Columbus in 2009, helps abortion-vulnerable women choose life by giving them the opportunity to see the humanity of their unborn babies with the aid of technology. The Oregon Knights of Columbus have helped place 45 ultrasound machines in pro-life pregnancy resource centers statewide. They’ve placed two this year, with more in the works. Oregon Knights of Columbus State Deputy Bob Adams, whose term expires in July, 2027, said he hopes to raise the Oregon total from 45 to 50 ultrasound machines before he passes the baton. “One of the core fundamentals in the Knights of Columbus is that [human life] has dignity in every stage,” Adams said. “In teaching with our Catholic Faith, we defend life from the moment of conception through natural death.” 🔗 Click here to read the full article: ortl.org/oregon-knights-of-c… ✅ Don't miss an article!

Can we have an abortion debate without assuming the other side is evil? Why or why not?

Is there any point in the abortion debate where you think both sides could agree?

Last month, I traveled to England with some friends from college. We saw the sights in London, stood transfixed by Oxford’s famous spires, punted on the river in Cambridge, marveled at Stonehenge, strolled the storybook lanes of the Cotswolds, and explored the stunning wilds of the Lake District. Having so recently been there and soaked up the majesty of England with all its castles, cathedrals, pubs, and gardens, it was with a sense of familiarity and kinship that I began listening to pro-life apologist Scott Klusendorf’s recent video essay describing a polite, friendly, and information-packed conversation about abortion he had at an Oxford pub when he, too, was in England around the same time that my friends and I were... 🔗 Click here to read the full article: ✅ Don't miss an article!
