WASHINGTON (AP) — These are heady times for participants in the annual March for Life. Anti-abortion protestors gathered for decades to call for an appeal of Roe v. Wade, which had provided a constitutional right for an abortion. Now, with the repeal of Roe in 2022, they are now on the inside rather than the outside. With Donald Trump’s return to the White House and Republicans in control of Congress, the activists want to build on their victories. Thousands assembled Friday to hear Vice President JD Vance, who was scheduled to address them in person, and President Trump, who was to appear in a pre-recorded message.
