FACE Should be Repealed Because Pro-Life Americans Should Not be Targeted for Protesting Abortion

Congressman Chip Roy, R-TX, has introduced a bill that, if passed, would repeal the controversial Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. The Biden administration has used the FACE Act to justify the arrests of numerous pro-life activists and protestors.

Is Limited Government the Best Pro-Family Policy?

Conservatives and libertarians have seen their marriage of convenience wax and wane over the decades. The “fusionism” of National Review’s Frank Meyer sought to harness the limited-government energies of the libertarian right with the religious and moral vision of mainstream conservatives, and racked up meaningful political victories. In the early 2010s, some predicted a “libertarian moment” was going to permanently shift the political right

Protect Pro-Life Free Speech, Defend the Right to Pray and Protest Outside Abortion Centers

The ACLJ is filing an amicus brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to grant review in a pro-life free speech case and to end, once and for all, the “floating bubble zones” being used to stifle pro-life sidewalk counseling outside various abortion businesses across the country. The current case is Vitagliano v. County of Westchester, but there’s a big backstory to the issue.
