Who will win the 2021 Group of the Year Awards? Thank you to everyone who cast a vote for our Students for Life Group of the Year Awards!

Let's #FireFauci! This month, Students for Life team members and student leaders rallied outside the National Institutes of Health to call for the resignation of Dr. Anthony Fauci following the news that he approved the use of taxpayer dollars to fund barbaric experiments at the University of Pittsburgh. This inhumane "research" involved grafting aborted infant scalps onto the backs of lab rats and has benefited nobody but the abortion facilities that trafficked these fetal remains. After the rally, a group of students met with U.S. Senator Mike Braun (R-IN) to thank him for co-introducing an amendment that would outlaw the creation of animal-human hybrids. Watch the rally Livestream here and check out our blog recap for more information about our #FireFauci event.

Our VICTORY for Life & Faith Last week, Students for Life hosted seven Fight for Life & Faith Rallies nationwide calling on Christian leaders to hold their flock, including public officials, accountable for adhering to the pro-life principles of Church teaching. We specifically urged Catholic Cardinals and Bishops to address the issue of permitting radical pro-abortion politicians to receive Holy Communion during Catholic Mass. And they did! The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) voted in favor of drafting a document to address this controversy. You can find the full story and photos from our events here.

This is Big Abortion's Big Secret Chemical Abortion Pills currently account for 40% of all abortions, but this number continues to increase as radical pro-abortion public officials work to remove health and safety regulations for the sale and distribution of these drugs. In partnership with a group of other pro-life organizations, Students for Life just released a DocuSeries outlining the urgency of this Death by Mail crisis. This five-episode DocuSeries exposes the harmful reality of Chemical Abortion Pills and explores the life-saving power of the Abortion Pill Reversal. Click here to watch the DocuSeries and learn how YOU can take action against Death by Mail.

In the News: Doxxing in Argentina In recent news, it was revealed that Planned Parenthood paid journalists to release a document publicizing the personal information of over 400 Argentinian residents and organizations who support pro-life, Christian, or conservative viewpoints. Though the website is no longer accessible to the public, this blacklist is a potentially dangerous method of discrimination, not to mention illegal according to Argentinian privacy laws. I include this story not to frighten you, but simply to make you aware. You can read more here at Catholic News Agency and Crux. In the meantime, be vigilant and stay strong!
