June 24th marks the two-year anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade.
As we approach this anniversary, we continue to thank God that states
can once again protect the lives of preborn children in law.
Since the Dobbs
decision, many states have enacted strong legal protections for preborn
children. Tragically, other states have drastically expanded abortion
access, such as Kansas, Michigan, and Ohio, due in part to deceptive
campaigns and advertising. Other states continue to pursue extreme,
pro-abortion policies. This fall, as many as 10 states will have
abortion referenda on their ballots, enabling voters to enshrine
abortion and override existing pro-life safeguards in the process.
At
this critical moment, whether we reside in states with pro-life or
pro-abortion policies, we are presented with opportunities and
responsibilities to continue building a culture that welcomes,
celebrates, and protects human life. Our prayers are essential to
maintaining policies that protect life, where they exist, and preventing
the spread of policies that lead to more abortions. Let us draw close
to Christ’s Sacred Heart and sincerely ask how he is calling us to use
our unique gifts for the cause of life.
