Capitol Hill Brief — Struggling for Life
Listen carefully to what this Planned Parenthood official says they do with an unborn child that is born as a result of a botched abortion: [Audio Clip] Florida State Rep. Jim Boyd: It’s just really hard for me to even ask you this question, because I’m almost in disbelief. If a baby is born […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Every Heart Beating
I remember hearing the heartbeat of my own children for the first time. [Heartbeat audio] Did you know that we can detect a child’s heartbeat beginning at 21 days? And can be heard by monitor at 8-10 weeks! At 7-12 weeks old, an unborn baby has brain waves and developing features like a nose, […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Broad Support
The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act should not be a left or right issue. Even many pro-choice people support a 20-week ban on abortion. Recent polls by Quinnipiac, National Journal, Huffington Post, NBC News/Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post/ABC News all revealed: A majority of Americans support limiting abortion after 20-weeks’ gestation. Sixty percent of women think abortion after that […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Bad Company
According to medical experts, a baby’s pain system at 20-weeks’ gestation is fully developed; the baby’s higher-level, pain-modifying systems have barely begun to develop, leaving them to feel excruciating pain. That is big reason why the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act is so desperately needed. What we have in our country is nothing short of a humanitarian crisis. […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Pain-Capable
The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act exposes the left for their radicalism on abortion. The legislation only deals with the unborn child at 20 weeks — that’s five months! I told you yesterday that at five months, a baby has fingernails, her own unique fingerprints, eyebrows, and eyelashes. But did you know that there […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Boy, Girl, or Statistic?
The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act is one of the most crucial pieces of pro-life legislation since the passage of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act. This legislation not only protects babies who are five months in the womb and can feel excruciating pain, but also protects women who are at an increasingly greater risk […]

Capitol Hill Brief — Regret
The scars of abortion were clearly felt at our recent North Dakota 100 No More Rally where we heard the testimony of one post-abortive woman named Ruth: [Audio Clip] Ruth Ruch: “I desperately wanted to undo what I had done. But I couldn’t. I couldn’t get my child back, no matter how many tears […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Ruth
Ruth, from the Rachel’s Vineyards ministry, gave the testimony of her terrifying abortion experience at our recent North Dakota 100 No More Rally: [Audio Clip] Ruth Ruch: “I had an abortion here in Fargo when I was 21 years old.

Capitol Hill Brief — Alveda King
One of the highlights of our 100 No More Rallies is to hear the testimony and beautiful heart of Dr. Alveda King, the niece of the beloved civil rights Leader, the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. Alveda is a post-abortive, pro-life champion who reminds us God has a plan for each of us. Listen […]

Capitol Hill Brief — Living Up to the Calling
In his 1815 Thanksgiving Day proclamation, President James Madison wrote: “No people ought to feel greater obligations to celebrate the goodness of the Great Disposer of Events of the destiny of Nations than the people of the United States. … And to the same Divine Author of Every Good and Perfect Gift we are […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Give Thanks for Our Awesome God
Did you know we are the only country in the world that celebrates Thanksgiving? Though celebrated since the pilgrims, Thanksgiving wasn’t made an official holiday until 1863, when Abraham Lincoln instituted it as a way to heal the wounds of the nation after civil war. Many believed these wounds could never be healed, but […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Praise God for America
I love Thanksgiving! It makes me so happy to reflect on what I have instead of what I don’t — God’s goodness instead of the world’s sin. I am so thankful for my faith, my family, the members of Concerned Women for America, the many conservative women who came before us, and the amazing […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Grateful for America’s Foundations
Did you know that the same week Congress approved the First Amendment they requested President Washington to declare the First National Day of Thanksgiving and Prayer to Almighty God? “Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly […]
Capitol Hill Brief — God Reigns
It’s Thanksgiving week and my heart feels up with joy and song as I remember just one thing … God is still king! That means there’s hope. In the middle of the many difficulties we face personally, as a country, — even in the whole world — we can rest on His unwavering love. […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Peace for Israel
This week, we’ve been discussing the good news of the restoration of the U.S.’s strong relation with Israel under the Trump Administration. America’s relationship with Israel is vital to our national security, as well as our foreign policy strategy in the Middle East. Israel is among the United States’ closest allies and is the […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Israeli Anthem
I hope you realize that anti-Semitism is alive and growing in some parts of the world. Did you see the recent video of Israel’s Tal Flicker who won the gold medal in judo at a recent event in Abu Dhabi? Flicker took his place atop the winner’s podium, gratefully accepted his gold medal, and […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Trump Administration’s Support for Israel
It’s been refreshing to witness the Trump Administration’s unabashed commitment to support Israel. And I’m so grateful I got to thank the president at a dinner. Their latest action involved withdrawing from UNESCO, citing their unquestionable anti-Israel bias. The U.S. owed $550 million to it, and it contributed annually about 70 million, which compromised […]
