Newly elected President Trump pardoned 23 pro-life activists Thursday<\/a> in an Executive Order the day before the annual March for Life. In a flurry of executive orders promised before he was sworn in, Trump pardoned those wrongfully arrested and persecuted under the Biden administration. First, he forgave the detained J-6 -ers, and then he pardoned pro-lifers.<\/p>\n

Pro-Lifers<\/h3>\n

Some individuals had been sentenced to multiple years in prison after being convicted mostly for engaging in peaceful protests and prayers outside of abortion facilities.<\/p>\n

As Trump was about to sign the order, he spoke compassionately about the pardon recipients.<\/p>\n

They should not have been prosecuted. Many of them are elderly. This is a great honor to sign [1]<\/sup><\/a>.<\/h4>\n

Meanwhile, Peter Breen, Thomas More Society Executive Vice President and Head of Litigation, commented,<\/p>\n

Today is a new day for the pardoned pro-life advocates who have suffered FBI raids, federal prosecutions, and severe punishment for peacefully and courageously witnessing for life. We thank President Trump for keeping his promise to these pro-life mothers, fathers, grandparents, pastors, and priests. <\/b>What happened to these peaceful pro-life individuals must never happen again [2]<\/sup><\/a>.<\/h4>\n

Biden’s Administration<\/h3>\n

The Biden administration\u2019s Department of Justice targeted pro-life activists across the country under the controversial Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. The Biden-Harris administration had not prosecuted anyone under the FACE Act for the 436 church attacks that took place last year. Pro-life pregnancy resource centers are 22 times more likely to be attacked<\/a>\u00a0than abortion facilities.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Biden awarded the previous head<\/a> of Planned Parenthood the Medal of Freedom for all she does. Incidentally, she just died from cancer.<\/p>\n
