Since then, the abortion industry has intensified its efforts to convince women that pregnancy is inherently dangerous and harmful to their health.

I join my colleague Senator Roger Wicker to draw the attention of the American people to the widespread devastation caused by Winter Storm Fern.

Last week, tens of thousands of Americans of all ages, from across the country, gathered in our Nation's Capital to march for the most vulnerable among us: preborn children. I am so proud to live in a country with such a strong and resilient pro-life movement. While we have experienced many ups and downs in the cause for life, one thing has never changed: We have never given up.
