On Friday, Jan. 24, the 52nd annual March for Life took place in Washington, D.C., with tens of thousands of pro-lifers gathering to march in defense of the unborn.

The theme of the pro-life movement’s largest annual event was “Life: Why We March,” which organizers said was meant to highlight the pro-life movement’s core message to protect unborn children and support their mothers. 

Various speakers were featured at the march’s rally stage, including U.S. Vice President JD Vance, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, House Speaker Mike Johnson, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, and former professional surfer Bethany Hamilton.

Here are some of the best photos from the march.
