EPPC Welcomes Alexandra DeSanctis as Fellow in Life and Family Initiative
The Ethics and Public Policy Center is pleased to announce that Alexandra DeSanctis has joined EPPC as a Fellow in the Life & Family Initiative, after serving for two years as a Visiting Fellow at EPPC. DeSanctis is co-author, with Ryan T. Anderson, of the 2022 book Tearing Us Apart: How Abortion Harms Everything and Solves Nothing.

Since 2016, DeSanctis has been a writer at National Review, where she covers politics, elections, culture, and abortion policy. She first joined NR as a William F. Buckley Jr. Fellow in Political Journalism with the National Review Institute and since 2018 has been a staff writer. She has been a regular commentator on NR’s podcast “The Editors.”
 
Her writing has been published in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, and The Atlantic, among other publications. She speaks for high-school and college audiences across the country about abortion and the pro-life movement.
 
DeSanctis’ work at EPPC will focus on culture and family issues, with a particular focus on abortion policy and pro-life advocacy. 

Praise for Alexandra DeSanctis

Jeanne Mancini, President, March for Life:
 
“The Ethics and Public Policy Center has gained a stellar researcher and writer in Alexandra DeSanctis, and the pro-life movement will be one of the blessed recipients of her work. In this historic moment, we desperately need great minds like Alexandra’s fully devoted to deep analysis and thorough writing. She will be a tremendous resource for anyone working to build a culture of life.” 
 
Marjorie Dannenfelser, President, Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America:
 
“Alexandra DeSanctis’ keen and insightful writing has become a new and welcome standard in pro-life journalism—presenting truth to the public and elected officials with singular clarity among media outlets.  Alexandra challenges her readers to look beneath the surface of the issues, inviting her audience to consider the full moral and strategic picture rather than settle for tropes and political slogans. She brings passion and intellectual prowess to EPPC at a critical turning point in history for unborn girls and boys and their mothers.”  
 
Vincent Phillip Muñoz, Tocqueville Associate Professor of Political Science, University of Notre Dame:
 
“Alexandra DeSanctis is the pro-life voice of her generation. She adds a powerful and persuasive voice to EPPC’s formidable team of scholars. Since her undergraduate days at Notre Dame, where I was privileged to be one of her professors, she has tenaciously defended the dignity of all members of the human family and given voice to those who cannot speak in their own name.”

Rich Lowry, editor in chief, National Review:
 
“Alexandra DeSanctis is one of the most fearless journalists in America. She is dogged, factual, and principled. It’s been an honor being in the same journalistic and intellectual foxhole with her at National Review all these years, and I salute EPPC for bringing her on as a full-time fellow. I’m delighted that she is taking this next step in her career, and look forward to her continued contributions to NR.”
DONATE TO EPPC

EPPC’s Life and Family Initiative brings together the longstanding pro-life efforts of many EPPC scholars to create an integrated, holistic response addressing both the necessary protections for unborn children and the necessary support for pregnant mothers and their families.

The Life and Family Initiative works nationwide to advance pro-life policies that protect unborn children by restricting abortion at the state and federal levels, via legislation, regulation, and litigation. We continue to advance cultural remedies and propose robust public policies that support families and offer necessary aid to women facing unexpected pregnancies. The Initiative builds on the heroic and critical work that maternity homes, pregnancy resource centers, and countless volunteers have carried out for more than fifty years. Strong families and communities are the essential building-block of a healthy society, and economic policy must keep that point front and center.
LEARN MORE

Tearing Us Apart: How Abortion Harms Everything and Solves Nothing, the new book by EPPC President Ryan T. Anderson and Visiting Fellow Alexandra DeSanctis, exposes the false promises of the abortion movement and explains why it has made everything worse. Now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade and returned abortion law to the democratic process, a powerful new book reframes the coming debate: Our fifty-year experiment with unlimited abortion has harmed everyone—even its most passionate proponents.

Women, men, families, the law, politics, medicine, the media—and, of course, children (born and unborn)—have all been brutalized by the culture of death fostered by Roe v. Wade.

Abortion hollows out marriage and the family. It undermines the rule of law and corrupts our political system. It turns healers into executioners and "women's health" into a euphemism for extermination.
