WASHINGTON – Tens of thousands of anti-abortion advocates gathered in Washington last Friday for the annual “March for Life,” their mood boosted by the possibility that the U.S. Supreme Court could soon upend the Roe v. Wade ruling that legalized abortion nationwide.

Despite freezing temperatures, the activists — many attending with their school and church groups from around the country — assembled on the National Mall carrying signs that read “I am the post-Roe generation” and “The future is anti-abortion.”
