Vice President J.D. Vance Will Headline March for Life

Vice President J.D. Vance will headline the March for Life next Friday in Washington, D.C., continuing his support for the pro-life cause in his second consecutive year addressing the annual event.

The March for Life, one of the largest human rights demonstrations in the world, is scheduled for Friday, January 23.

Held each year near the anniversary of the infamous Roe v. Wade decision, the event defends unborn children from abortion.

A spokesman for the vice president confirmed the appearance exclusively to The Daily Wire, stating, “Vice President Vance is grateful to the tens of thousands of Americans who travel to the National Mall each year to speak out in support of life, and looks forward to joining them for the second consecutive year.”

The spokesman added, “President Trump has delivered more victories for the pro-life movement than any president in history,” and affirmed that “the vice president will continue to fight for the right to life alongside the president and his administration.”

Vance, who has described himself as “100% pro-life,” previously spoke at the March for Life last year in his first remarks as vice president.

He told demonstrators then, “It is a blessing to know the truth, and the truth is that unborn life is worthy of protection. So please, go forth, not with frustration, but with joy.”

He also said, “We are joyful to March for Life. We are joyful to know that that picture on an ultrasound, that is a picture of baby with hopes and dreams and potential to come. It is a joy and a blessing to fight for the unborn, to work for the unborn, and to March for Life.”

In 2022, Vance stated, “If you’re not willing to stand up to the left on abortion, you can’t be trusted on anything else. The pro-life position is the pro-people position and I’m proud to be 100% pro-life.”

This year’s march carries the theme “Life Is A Gift,” which highlights that life is very good and worthy of protection, no matter the circumstances.

Other speakers include House Speaker Mike Johnson and Congressman Chris Smith, among additional pro-life leaders.

The event underscores ongoing efforts to protect unborn life following the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision overturning Roe v. Wade, a key victory for the pro-life movement advanced by pro-life judicial appointments during President Trump’s first term.
