Friday, June 24 marks a historic human rights victory for unborn children and their mothers and a bright pro-life future for America.

Roe v. Wade has wreaked havoc on our nation and the rights of the most innocent in our society. Since 1973, over 63 million boys and girls meant for this world have had their lives violently taken because a handful of unelected justices — contrary to our Constitution and our founding principles — imposed by fiat an alleged “right” to abortion on demand up to birth nationwide.

By overturning Roe, the Supreme Court at last is returning the abortion issue to the people, to debate and decide for themselves through their elected representatives. It will allow them to act on advances in science and technology that let us see the undeniable humanity of unborn children, to hear their hearts beat and watch them suck their thumbs, make faces and even cry in real time, and that let doctors perform life-saving surgery on their youngest patients right in the womb. When the people understand the brutal reality of abortion, and they get to have their say, overwhelmingly we find that life wins.
