As we work to build a culture that values every life, it’s vital to understand what moves an abortion-minded woman to change her heart. This week on Straight Talk on Life Issues, guests Maddie Martinez and Elizabeth Barrett share their powerful testimonies of choosing life after nearly choosing abortion.

Scientific Data Supports Abortion Pill Reversal
Chemical abortion has transformed the abortion industry, aided by a president and administration eager to do their bidding. Recently, the FDA rescinded important safeguards for women who take these dangerous pills. Fearing the reversal of Roe v Wade and states passing far reaching legislation to protect babies and their mothers, advocates of abortion are increasingly looking to abortion by mail. Without medical supervision, women are more vulnerable to the dangers of chemical abortion.
