Vance says he wants more babies in the US as he and Trump vow to protect unborn children at March for Life
Vice President JD Vance proclaimed he wants “more babies in the United States of America” on Friday in his debut speech, echoing President Trump’s promise to fight back against unrestrained abortion access.“Our society has failed to recognize the obligation that one generation has to another is a core part of living in a society to begin with.
So let me say, very simply, I want more babies in the United States of America,” Vance declared.Vance added that the US had “failed a generation” by celebrating abortion access and not aiding young couples with the tools they need to support a family — saying the country had embraced a “culture of abortion on demand.”“We need a culture that celebrates life at all stages, one that recognizes and truly believes that the benchmark of national success is not a GDP number or our stock market, but whether people feel that they can raise thriving and healthy families, in our country,” Vance said.“We march to protect the unborn, we march to proclaim and live out the sacred truth that every single child is a miracle and a gift from God,” he went on.The Catholic vice president has long championed pro-life causes and said he would be back in 2026 to speak again at the March for Life, which is an annual march around the time of the anniversary of Roe v.Wade.Trump was the first president to attend and speak at the march back in 2022, but sent a video message instead this year as he traveled to North Carolina and California to survey the damages brought by Hurricane Helene and the LA wildfires.The president celebrated the 2022 overturning of Roe v.
Wade, which was brought upon with the help of the Supreme Court justices he nominated to serve on the bench.“We will protect the historic gains we have made and stop the radical Democrat push for a federal right for unlimited abortion on demand up to the moment of birth and even after birth.Think of that — after birth, and some people want that.
