Four Years After ‘Roe,’ Judie Brown Calls Out the Reality of Abortion in the United States and Calls for Prayer and Action from Supporters
Four years ago on June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Many celebrated. But now, with clear eyes, we must ask: Are we truly better off?
Instead of boldly declaring the personhood of every preborn child, the court sent the abortion battle back to the states. What followed was not protection but chaos.
Abortions are rising across America. The abortion pill has made killing preborn babies easier and more common than ever before. Chemical abortions now dominate, tearing apart tiny lives in the privacy of homes, often without medical supervision. The understanding of the value of every human person is sinking to a dangerous new low.
Our country is in a full-blown crisis. Prayer and bold action have never been more urgent.
That’s where you come in.
Will you take two simple but powerful steps with me today?
- Contact the FDA commissioner immediately. Demand that they remove these deadly abortion pills from the market. Every day they remain available, more innocent children die.
- Join me in prayer. Pray that the FDA will finally recognize the evil these pills inflict and pull them off the market for good.
Because prayer is integral in our fight, I wrote a simple yet powerful prayer for this intention. Will you pray it with me right now?
A Prayer for the Recall of Abortion Pills
Lord Jesus, the abortion pill regimen is putting Your preborn children and their mothers in grave danger. We ask You, Lord, to open the eyes of those at the Federal Drug Administration who approve these deadly pills and help them see the horror they are promoting. We pray that each of them will have the wisdom and fortitude to end the distribution of such chemicals. And we pray for the parents of these vulnerable children, as we ask You to help them see the beauty of their growing babies and strengthen their resolve and courage so that they will not seek death for their children.
We ask this in Christ Our Lord, Amen.
Your voice and your prayers truly matter. Every letter, every prayer, and every person you share this with helps save lives and restores respect for God’s precious gift of human life.
Please invite your family, friends, and fellow pro-lifers to join us today. The more voices that rise up, the harder it will be for the FDA to ignore the truth.
Thank you for standing strong in this critical hour. Together, with God’s help, we will defend the innocent and work to make America a nation that once again values every human life.
Planned Parenthood Affiliate to Reopen Facility in Louisiana: Will Abortion Resume in the State?
Louisiana saw its last two Planned Parenthood facilities close in September 2025, but just this week, on the fourth anniversary of the Dobbs decision, Planned Parenthood of Great Plains announced that it would reintroduce its physical presence within the state.
Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast was the original affiliate; it operated facilities in Louisiana for 40 years. However, it made the decision in 2025 to close its remaining facilities in Baton Rouge and New Orleans and cease its operations as an affiliate, leaving the facilities it also ran in Texas to Planned Parenthood Greater Texas. This week, Planned Parenthood Great Plains announced in a press release that it would be responsible for reestablishing Planned Parenthood’s presence in the state by expanding telehealth “services” and opening a facility in New Orleans come the fall.
Emily Wales, CEO of PPGP, said the following regarding this decision: “We saw the impact that disruptions in access had on patients in Louisiana, and we know the deep disparities that exist in the health care landscape. In close collaboration with local partners, we knew we could be part of reshaping a future where all Louisianians can access essential sexual and reproductive care, no matter what.”
Though Louisiana’s facilities were not previously licensed to commit abortions, they provided gender hormone therapies, its perverted sex education for teens, and birth control (some forms of birth control, such as Plan B, can act as abortifacients). Given current abortion laws in Louisiana, it is likely that the new facility will offer the same “services” to men and women.
What is important to note, however, is that Planned Parenthood actively refers women to abortion pill websites such as AbortionFinder and Plan C if Planned Parenthood cannot legally commit abortion in the facility due to the state’s laws. Additionally, many of Planned Parenthood’s affiliates also have their own Patient Navigator program, which financially covers travel and lodging accommodations for women and minors who are traveling out of state to get an abortion. We cannot ignore the fact that, as America’s largest abortion organization, Planned Parenthood is always circumventing the system to continue its evil of killing preborn babies no matter what state laws say.
It is a sad reality that Planned Parenthood will once again rear its ugly head in the state of Louisiana with another facility and more of its “telehealth” appointments. We encourage all those warriors for life to continue praying for the end of abortion and Planned Parenthood. Whether you can pray outside abortion facilities or pray inside your home, help us fight this battle with prayer and trust in God, as they are our strongest weapons in this spiritual battle.
We also invite any information or questions regarding this upcoming facility in Louisiana to be sent to our STOPP program at STOPP@all.org.

VIDEO SHORT: Girl Scouts USA Doesn’t Deserve Our Daughters
Girl Scouts of the USA has always had a branding problem.
Ask anyone what they associate with Boy Scouts, and you might get answers such as “badges,” “camping,” or “first aid.” Then ask what they associate with Girl Scouts and the majority of them will answer “cookies.”
Cookies are fundraisers. They are not an act of charity. It’s no wonder so many American girls turn to the Boy Scouts—rebranded as Scouting America—now that girls are welcome into the organization.
Girl Scouts USA isn’t going to recover from its declining numbers. Selling cookies isn’t fun. Neither is paying dues to an organization whose policies contradict Church teaching. This three-minute video explains why Girl Scouts USA isn’t the same organization your grandmother once knew.
