Dan Lipinkski’s win should offer a lesson for Democratic leaders

Published March 23, 2018 4:00am ET



Rep. Dan Lipinski’s win in Tuesday’s Democratic primary election was a huge victory for the pro-life movement and for the majority of Americans who support common-ground pro-life policies – one in which Susan B. Anthony List was honored to play a part. It could even save the Democratic Party’s future, if the right lessons are learned.

SBA List knows Dan Lipinski very well. He is a pro-life legend. He serves alongside another pro-life hero, Republican Congressman Chris Smith, as co-chair of the Congressional Pro-Life Caucus. He is the lead co-sponsor of the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act and was a speaker at the 2018 Chicago March for Life. In 2010, he stood firm against Obamacare’s expansion of taxpayer-funded abortion, even under intense pressure from party leaders to give in, which took incredible courage under fire.
