“Scheduled in DC for Jan. 23 is ‘Free Speech Day for Doctors and Other Healthcare Workers‘. So two great events those going can participate in.” Admin

 

In preparation for the annual pro-life event’s return to the nation’s capital next week, the 49th annual March for Life has announced its lineup of speakers pro-life participants will hear from on January 21.

 

The March, which this year is adopting the theme “Equality Begins in the Womb,” unveiled Tuesday its list of speakers and performers who will address the crowd, including Christian actor Kirk Cameron, Reps. Julia Letlow (R-LA) and Chris Smith (D-NJ), Relationship Matters founder Toni McFadden, Duck Dynasty’s Lisa Robertson, “Bible in a Year” podcast host Mike Schmitz, Down syndrome advocate Katie Shaw, Christendom College student George Schuberg, Alliance Defending Freedom attorney Kristen Waggoner, and nurse Rachel Young.

 

Archbishop Elpidophoros of America and Cissie Graham Lynch will deliver the opening and closing prayers. Musician Matthew West will perform prior to the rally.

 

“We are delighted to welcome these incredible speakers to the March for Life,” said March for Life Education & Defense Fund president Jeanne Mancini. “Americans everywhere know that unborn children deserve equal rights and protection under the law. We expect this year’s March for Life to be historic with even higher levels of enthusiasm from participants. We are hopeful that, with Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization before the Supreme Court, 2022 will bring us much closer to building the culture of life we have all marched for since Roe v. Wade was tragically imposed on our nation nearly 50 years ago.”
