Every Life
by Jean Mondoro

The National March for Life has announced the theme for the third annual march in post-Roe v. Wade America to be “Every Life: Why We March.” 

“Each year presents different challenges in the great battle of our time; the fight to end abortion and build a culture of life,” March for Life President Jeanne Mancini said.

The theme of every annual march is important, Mancini said in an email announcement, as it “serves as a wonderful opportunity to educate and speak into the specific cultural moment.”

“Many of you have shared that the fight to protect the unborn has become even more of an uphill battle in recent months,” Mancini continued.

“Politicians who once stood firmly on pro-life principles now seem to be distancing themselves from our movement,” she said. “And the movement itself feels divided with so many different approaches to the abortion issue.”

The news release then linked to the March for Life’s 2025 theme reveal video, which also acknowledges the difficulty of the pro-life mission, but maintains that “we won’t” give into the temptation to “give up.” The video then shows newborn babies and toddlers, flashing forward to older kids running outside and playing to grown adults who are getting married.

The video emphasizes that the reason pro-life advocates continue to march is because “every single life deserves a chance,” which is “what real human flourishing looks like,” meaning “that is why we march.”

“Our goal with this year’s theme is to remind and reignite everyone — politicians, legislators, families, and women — in the truth that every life, unborn and born, has inherent dignity, meaning, and value, and as such is always worth fighting for,” Mancini said.

She underscored that pro-life supporters would continue marching at both the state and national level “until our nation’s laws reflect the basic truths about life: that all human life is created equal and is worthy of protection.”

Every life, unborn and born, has inherent dignity, meaning, and value, and as such is always worth fighting for.

The 2025 National March for Life will be held on Friday, Jan. 24 in Washington, D.C.
