Vice President JD Vance has been vocal about his stance against abortion, emphasizing the Trump administration's accomplishments in curbing the practice. Speaking at this year's March for Life rally in Washington D.C., Vance encouraged anti-abortion activists to remain hopeful about their mission, citing the expansion of a ban on U.S. foreign aid for groups supporting abortion services.
Vance also highlighted the 2022 Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, calling it "the most important Supreme Court decision of my lifetime." He credited President Donald Trump's leadership and the appointment of conservative jurists for bringing an end to what he described as "judicial tyranny" on human life issues.
Furthermore, Vance praised the expansion of the Mexico City policy, which now includes assistance to organizations promoting gender identity and diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. However, he also made it clear that his administration's priority is not to promote radical ideologies but rather to support families and human flourishing.
Vance himself has been a proponent of increasing birth rates, having announced in recent weeks that he and his wife are expecting their fourth child. As the country faces declining birth rates, Vance sees this as an opportunity for the United States to grow its population.
The event was marked by a sea of supporters waving signs with messages such as "Choose Life," "Make More Babies," and "I am the Pro-Life Generation." The rally drew tens of thousands of people annually to Washington D.C., making it one of the largest anti-abortion events in the country.
