| 4 Ways Republicans Should Talk about Life in 2024 |
| by Mary Szoch |
| As the March for Life approaches, political pundits are recommending Republicans leave the unborn to speak for themselves.

Here are four ways Republicans can chart a different course in 2024. |

| Congress Narrowly Escapes the Snow and Budget Storms |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| With a wintry mix headed toward Washington, Congress decided to plow through something else Thursday: its differences on the federal budget. Before the first flakes fell in D.C., the House and Senate raced to avert a shutdown - passing a temporary spending bill to keep the government's lights on for six more weeks.

| Praying for Life |
| by Mary Szoch and Meg Kilgannon |
| For those of us in the pro-life movement, January 22, 1973, will always be a day of great sadness, but we do not mourn as those without hope. We know that God hears our prayers, and in Dobbs vs. Jackson Women's Health Organization? decided on June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court reversed its terrible decision to allow abortion - calling legalized killing of the unborn "egregiously wrong," and once again giving Americans the opportunity to protect the innocent among us. Our rejoicing continues, but a sad realization sets in: the fight for life is far from over. |
