Last Friday, more than 100,000 Americans came to Washington for the 46th annual March for Life. This year's theme was ``Unique from Day One.'' Those who march envision a world where the beauty, dignity, and uniqueness of every human life are valued and protected. Thanks to the pro-life movement, abortion rates across the country are at the lowest since 2013. Proudly, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania remains one of the top protective States in the Nation to provide legal protections for human life from conception to natural death, according to the Americans United for Life. Many of my colleagues have introduced legislation in this Congress to advance the pro-life cause and to protect the unborn. I am proud to cosponsor many of these bills, including the Defund Planned Parenthood Act, the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act, the Sanctity of Human Life Act, the Protecting the Dignity of Unborn Children Act, and the Life at Conception Act. Mr. Speaker, we must always be a voice for the voiceless, and we must continue to build a culture that values life and respects mothers and their children, both born and yet to be born. ____________________
