John,

40 Days for Life volunteer Mark Houck first called us in October 2021 after an altercation with a pro-abortion escort who was harassing his young son. We went to work for Mark, and no case was ever brought against him by the local DA.

Then, last September, his home was raided by Biden's FBI at gunpoint in front of his seven children in an attempt to intimidate pro-lifers...

...but that attempt failed today, as a federal jury acquitted Mark, giving the FBI and DOJ a well-earned embarrassment.

Watch this brand-new video, where I explain why today's verdict is a HUGE victory for Mark, for abortion-vulnerable moms and babies, and for every American who believes in freedom of speech:

The Department of Justice under multiple presidential administrations--including throughout most of the Biden presidency--never had a problem with 40 Days for Life...until last fall.

What changed? Not 40 Days for Life! Our prayer vigils in hundreds of cities nationwide remain peaceful and law-abiding.

What changed is that Roe v. Wade was overturned, and Biden's DOJ and FBI retaliated by trying to terrorize pro-lifers out of exercising our rights.

But we fought back and won! Check out my full statement by visiting:

After this historic victory, we hope federal law enforcement will leave us alone and go back to prosecuting real criminals.

But if they don't, 40 Days for Life stands ready to fight for the rights of vigil participants whose First Amendment freedoms are violated by Biden's crooked FBI and DOJ.

For life,

Shawn Carney
President/CEO, 40 Days for Life
