Jan. 18 @ 10 AM Eastern: SBA List Hosts Press Conference with SD Gov. Kristi Noem, SC Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, & KY AG Daniel Cameron
Washington, D.C. – Ahead of the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision and the annual March for Life, pro-life state officials from South Dakota, South Carolina, and Kentucky will join Susan B. Anthony List (SBA List) President Marjorie Dannenfelser for a virtual press conference to discuss growing pro-life momentum at the state level. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, South Carolina Lt. Governor Pamela Evette, and Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron will discuss the pro-life movement and role of state lawmakers in protecting life in anticipation of the Dobbs case.
State executives are expected to play an increasingly important role in leading and implementing pro-life policy in anticipation of a Supreme Court decision in the Dobbs late abortion case, likely to be announced this summer. The Supreme Court has said it will address the constitutionality of pre-viability limits on abortion.

“With courage and compassion Governor Noem, Lieutenant Governor Evette, and Attorney General Cameron have championed the protection of unborn children and their mothers. They represent thousands of elected officials nationwide who are poised to lead fearlessly on the life issue after the Dobbs decision,” said SBA List President Marjorie Dannenfelser.“The U.S. is one of seven nations – including China and North Korea – that allow late-term abortion on demand more than halfway through pregnancy, well after unborn babies feel pain. Americans overwhelmingly reject such extreme policies, yet our elected lawmakers are shackled to Supreme Court precedents that in effect allow unlimited abortion up until birth,” she continued. “It’s time to return this issue back to the people to decide through their elected representatives. We hope the Court will soon allow all states to modernize our laws and protect women and children.”
SBA List is a network of 900,000 pro-life Americans nationwide, dedicated to ending abortion by electing national leaders and advocating for laws that save lives, with a special calling to promote pro-life women leaders.
