Democrats For Life

We are Democrats building a shared vision of tomorrow where our government and society protects life from womb to tomb.

The government shutdown is harming millions of Americans. We must fully fund the government to help the most vulnerable in our society and to pay those who are working without a paycheck.

Rep. Shri Thanedar's recent post describing the unborn as "a half-ounce fetus with no consciousness," wasn't just crass; it points to a much deeper issue — language that dismisses the dignity of an entire population.

Zenaida Perez's case against Fairfax County Public Schools may be complex, but that makes it even more important to seek the truth:

NPR reports Democrats are shifting abortion messaging toward affordability.

If Democrats want to help families, we should fight for paid leave, affordable birth, childcare, housing, diapers, maternal health care, and real support for pregnant women.

Abortion is not an affordability plan.

Whole Life Democrats believe women deserve better than abortion as the answer to economic hardship.

The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act was meant to protect pregnant women — not force organizations to act against their mission. DFLA joined an amicus brief arguing that the EEOC’s abortion-accommodation mandate violates free speech and expressive association.

Commonweal’s “Reviving the Pro-Life Democrat” says what Whole Life Democrats have long argued:

We are not asking to be tolerated under “strategic conditions.” We are asking for a real seat in the conversation — abortion, maternity care, poverty, disability rights, family policy, and human dignity.

Whole Life Democrats belong in the coalition. https://t.co/xBdY7sT85q

The Pope's Magnifica Humanitas reminds us: every human life has dignity.

Before birth.

After birth.

In sickness.

In poverty.

In disability.

In old age.

A just society protects every vulnerable life.

A consistent pro-life ethic cannot stop at birth.

It means supporting pregnant women, children, families, and the vulnerable before birth, at birth, and after birth — through maternal health care, childcare, family leave, housing, nutrition, and real protection.

That is pro-life for the whole life.

DFLA founder Carol Crossed has been arrested many times while advocating for justice and peacefully standing up for causes she believes in.

Our executive director, Kristen Day, was honored to co-author an article in The Hill calling for Congress to overturn the FACE Act and preserve the right to peacefully protest.

Supporting a woman through pregnancy is not political. It is compassionate. It is necessary. It is life-affirming.

[Democrats For Life @demsforlife]

If we truly honor mothers, we must fight for paid leave, affordable childcare, better maternal health care, workplace flexibility, and real support for pregnant women in difficult circumstances. Pro-life should mean pro-mother, pro-child, and pro-family.

[Democrats For Life @demsforlife]

Happy Mother’s Day! Today we honor mothers, grandmothers, birth mothers, adoptive mothers, foster mothers, and every woman who has loved, sacrificed, and carried others through life.

Supporting a woman’s option to have her baby is consistent with Democratic values. That means affordable care, practical support, and real solidarity with pregnant women. Democrats need to come back home to life.

Virginia legislators have been working hard to advance maternal-health measures.

But recently, only one thing seems to matter: $100 million was spent on the redistricting battle—while the work to support families and women in crisis has gone unnoticed.

The FACE Act was passed to protect the safety of those working at or seeking services from abortion clinics—but that's not all it covers.

See you tomorrow at the VA March for Life!

Join us afterwards at Virginia Beyond Abortion to hear democratic candidate Johnathan Lucci speak on a panel opposing the proposed constitutional amendment.

James Talarico says there is room for us in the Democratic Party. The Texas Democratic Party said no. So we’ll be outside the convention, peacefully calling James Talarico's bluff. #BigTentOrBigLie #OpenTheTent
