During a special ceremony at the White House last week, President Joe Biden bestowed the presidential Medal of Freedom to Rep. Nancy Pelosi.
She "used her superpower to pass some of the most significant laws in our nation's history," Biden said of her at the May 3 ceremony.
Kelsey Pritchard, of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, tells AFN the former House Speaker is considered one of the most rabid abortion supporters to walk the halls of Congress.
“She denied a vote on a born-alive bill that would protect babies who survive abortions. She said she would nuke the filibuster,” Pritchard points out.
AFN reported recently that Pelosi said Democrat election victories in November would mean codifying Roe v Wade in federal law after getting rid of the filibuster in the U.S. Senate.
Meanwhile, a pro-life group that trains sidewalk counselors says it has reached a milestone in the effort to save unborn babies. Sidewalk Advocates for Life says it is celebrating 22,000 babies saved from being killed in the mother’s womb.
Advocates spokesman Nate Robertson tells AFN abortion-minded women are often amazed to find out abortion clinics have given them the wrong impression about the pro-lifers standing outside the clinic.
“They often say that we are mean or nasty, or that we as pro-lifers are trying to take away rights,” he says. “But the reality is that we're trying to make sure that women have the most amount of information before making a life-changing decision, and that women would have all of their choices.”
