Midterm elections are right around the corner here in the states...
...and in the first post-Roe election, abortion is the hottest of hot-button topics, polarizing voters like no other issue.
But that wasn’t always the case.
In
fact, it’s a bit of a fluke that the Democrats have a staunchly
pro-abortion platform and the GOP has a pro-life platform. This week on The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we trace the fascinating politicization of abortion in America:

In this episode, we'll share the largely unknown history of abortion and partisan politics in America, including how:
- President Joe Biden once voted for a constitutional amendment to overturn Roe v. Wade;
- Nixon's Watergate scandal indirectly led to a seismic shift in the Republican Party's approach to abortion;
- Bill Clinton's mantra that abortion should be "safe, legal, and rare" led to the silencing of pro-life Democrats--and ultimately a demand that abortion be legal, on demand, and taxpayer-funded.
If you're an American citizen, it is critical to vote pro-life on November 8.
