Catherine Glenn Foster, President & CEO of Americans United for Life joins Steven H. Aden, Chief Legal Officer & General Counsel and Tom Shakely on AUL's "Life, Liberty, and Law" to celebrate the U.S. Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade and the future of pro-life advocacy. “Today, the U.S. Supreme Court has correctly and courageously reversed Roe v. Wade and restored a future full of hope for Americans of all ages, backgrounds, and beliefs. No more will the national fiction of abortion violence be perpetuated as if it could be a constitutional right. After nearly fifty years and the loss of more than sixty-two million American lives, Americans can once more choose to protect human life through their elected lawmakers,” said Catherine Glenn Foster, President & CEO of Americans United for Life. “Today is a promise of hope for all members in the human family, but especially for women and those millions who will now be protected from prenatal violence,” said Catherine Glenn Foster. “The work of Americans United for Life and the Pro-Life Movement has truly just begun. We invite all Americans to walk alongside us in the days, months, and years to come to enshrine pro-life laws in every state to uphold the human right to life, and to work toward the urgent and still necessary goal of abolishing abortion in American culture. We must clarify, as a constitutional matter as much as a matter of fundamental justice, that abortion shall not exist in the United States of America. And we must simultaneously strengthen American programs ensuring every person, born and not yet born, is equipped and empowered to thrive.” A New Day at Last: U.S. Supreme Court Reverses Roe v.

The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee has wrapped up its weeklong hearings with Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, who appears set to succeed U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer.

Aden, Chief Legal Officer at Americans United for Life joins Katie Glenn, Government Affairs Counsel, to speak about Judge Jackson's surprising claim and reflect on what Justice Jackson might for the future of the Supreme Court and for abortion jurisprudence.

Family Matters with Jim Minnery - The Faith & Politics Show !
It's a moment those of us in the pro-life community have waited a long time for.The United States Supreme Court has elected to take up a case directly related to the viability of pre-born babies. The case involves a Mississippi bill that preserves the human right to life and limits abortion when “the probable gestational age of the unborn human being” is “greater than” 15 weeks, “except in a medical emergency or in the case of a severe fetal abnormality….”The case is a "generational opportunity" for the U.S. Supreme Court to reign itself in with the U.S. as one of only seven nations across the globe that allow abortion for any reason after twenty weeks of gestation. “That the Supreme Court is considering this Mississippi law is a promising signal that perhaps a majority of Justices wish to give states greater power to regulate abortion,” said Steven H. Aden, Chief Legal Officer & General Counsel for Americans United for Life. “At the same time, if the Court rejects Mississippi's common sense HB 1510 protections, the pro-life movement will face a fundamental reckoning.Aden is my guest on Family Matters.

"The issue is never going away until the courts and the legislatures respect all human life," said Steven H. Aden, chief legal officer and general counsel at Americans United for Life. "You can't duck and cover. You have to be engaged. It's either going to be in the Supreme Court, in the Congress — or, if Lord willing, Roe (v. Wade) is overturned — the issue will be returned to the states and to the people, where it belongs, instead of in the hands of nine people wearing black robes. When it goes back to the states, that's ideal for us, because that is where the pro-life movement is really at its strength." Follow him @StevenHAdenAUL on Twitter.
