How pro-life became cool

The March for Life was different this year — and not just because President Trump showed up.

Trump was a big deal, of course. On Jan. 24, he became the first U.S. president in the march’s 47-year history to address in person the thousands of pro-lifers who gathered in Washington. His presence drew a flurry of media attention (a rare blessing for the march) and ballooned the crowd’s size to more than 100,000 people, filling the National Mall and surrounding streets all the way down to the Washington Monument.
