The theme of the 2019 March for Life will be "Unique From Day One: Pro-Life is Pro-Science," March for Life President Jeanne Mancini announced at an event on Capitol Hill on Thursday.
The theme was chosen as science is inherently pro-life, Mancini explained Oct. 18. Science has continued to "reaffirm the scientific fact, and the truth, that life begins at fertilization/conception."
"Our DNA is present at the moment of fertilization, and no fingerprint, ever--past, present, future--is like yours. And that's what it means to be unique from day one," said Mancini.
She pointed out that "society often ignores or tries to block these facts," and reminded the crowd that in 2008, then-candidate Barack Obama refused to provide an answer when asked when he believed life began, saying it was "above his pay grade"
