"Challenges Await as Anti-Abortion Activists March in Washington"

The annual March for Life in Washington faces a different political climate after the reversal of Roe v. Wade, with the anti-abortion movement encountering setbacks in the court of public opinion and fewer powerful allies. The movement is now focused on state-by-state battles over politics and policy, as well as shifting its messaging to focus on the needs of pregnant women and their families. The Democratic Party is mobilizing in support of abortion rights, while the anti-abortion movement aims to expand its reach at the state level and transfer its persistence into local marches that push for state action.
