Dear Friend,

Building a culture of life doesn’t end with the fight against abortion. In the months since the Court consigned Roe v. Wade to the dustheap, EPPC has risen to the new challenges of this moment, offering a principled and prudent path forward for pro-life efforts to protect every human being.

READ ABOUT EPPC’S RESPONSE TO DOBBS
As the Supreme Court prepared to issue its Dobbs ruling in the Summer of 2022, EPPC launched its Life and Family Initiative to advance a pro-life, profamily agenda that responds to the realities of the post-Roe future. Take a look at just some of the work featured in our new 2022 Annual Report:

Statement of Pro-Life Principles

  • Developing a comprehensive and prudent political strategy remains a pressing issue for the pro-life movement in the wake of Dobbs. “Protecting the Unborn: A Scholars’ Statement of Pro-Life Principle and Political Prudence”—written by EPPC scholars and signed by a coalition of leading intellectuals—articulates an ethically sound foundation for pro-life efforts and offers guidance for sensible policymaking that will steadily work toward the ultimate goal of protecting every human being in life and law.

Putting Families First

  • If the conservative movement is going to take our public responsibility to families seriously, it needs a solid understanding of what today’s American family really looks like, how economic forces shape family formation and how conservative public policy can support families’ ability to form, be fruitful, and flourish—a challenge being ably met by Patrick T. Brown's work.

The Triumph of the Conservative Legal Movement

  • The year’s momentous legal victory was the fruit of decades of coordinated and sustained effort by conservative scholars, among them Ed Whelan, who played an invaluable role as one of the most prominent pro-life commentators and legal analysts in the country during the Dobbs debate.
Strong families and communities are essential building blocks of a healthy society, and they deserve protection from the growing ideological and material forces undermining their essential work. EPPC promotes the truth about human nature, consistently proposing solutions that promote human flourishing and are faithful to constitutional principles, and our work is continuing this year. Most recently, I took to the pages of the Wall Street Journal to argue that Republicans can reset the abortion debate by being steadfast in defending the truth about the evil of abortion while accepting incremental progress toward our goal an America where every child is protected by law and welcomed in life.
DONATE TO EPPC

It’s a privilege for me to lead our devoted staff and accomplished scholars. With the help of our courageous supporters, we’ll continue to equip religious and political leaders alike with the philosophical and practical tools they need to face contemporary challenges to human dignity.

I hope you’ll enjoy the report, which you can find here. Thank you again.

Sincerely,



Ryan T. Anderson
