Thousands will gather for the 53rd National March for Life in the nation’s capital on Friday, Jan. 23, 2026

The first March for Life was on Jan. 22, 1974, in Washington, D.C. It took place one year after the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision legalized abortion nationwide. 

BTW:

In the three years since the Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, the total number of abortions nationally has slightly increased. The most recent data from the Society for Family Planning’s #WeCount project show that the average monthly abortion volume during the first half of 2025 was higher than the monthly average in 2024. From January to June 2025, there have been more than 590,000 abortions compared to 1.14 million abortions in all of 2024 and 1.06 million abortions in 2023. For most of the decade prior to the Dobbs ruling, there was a steady decline in abortion rates nationally, with a slight uptick in the years just before the ruling.
