Texas Right to Life marks our 50th birthday next week!
You've shaped history through your commitment to protecting preborn babies, pregnant moms, and vulnerable patients. We're so grateful for the difference you're making every day for children and families!
Over the next few days, we'll celebrate your incredible impact and share the steps ahead in this movement to rescue the innocent.
Just take a look at some of the biggest challenges and victories of our work together. >>
1973 U.S. Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade, declaring abortion a constitutional right
1973 Texas Right to Life founded to rescue preborn babies & hospital patients
1999 First Pro-Life bill passed in Texas since Roe v. Wade, paving the way for future policy victories
2005 Texas established the largest state fund in America to help pregnant women choose LIFE
2008 To combat pro-abortion efforts at universities, Texas Right to Life created America’s largest Pro-Life college scholarship program
2011 Dozens of Planned Parenthood clinics closed after Texas defunded abortion facilities of $64 million in the state budget
2013 Defeated unruly mobs & Wendy Davis’ pro-abortion filibuster to protect preborn babies who can feel pain
2017 President Trump nominated the first of the three Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe
2021 The Texas Heartbeat Act became the strongest law in America protecting preborn babies since Roe

This is half a century of victories won by the Lord!
But God is not done yet.
After Roe v. Wade was overturned, the legal landscape shifted, but the depth of evil that drives the pro-abortion and pro-euthanasia movements has not changed.
Christ still calls every believer to protect His children.
Let’s praise the Lord for these victories and continue this important fight.
