On May 22, 1969 Oregon became one of the first states in the nation to legalize abortion. This was followed by the U.S. Supreme Court’s infamous Roe v. Wade decision in 1973 which made abortion the “law of the land” until it was overturned in the Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson ruling.This year, thousands of Oregonians on May 17th at the Oregon State Capitol as we continue to advocate for a culture of life in Oregon. Pro-life speakers will address the crowd at 2:30. The Oregon March for Life will begin immediately following.
For over 50 years, Oregon Right to Life has gathered pro-life advocates of all ages annually to remember the lives lost to abortion and encourage hope and action to support mothers to choose life for their children. This new date signals a renewed focus and acknowledgement that the responsibility to regulate abortion has been rightfully returned to the people through their elected officials.
