President Donald Trump has pardoned 24 pro-life activists who were convicted under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE Act) during the administration of former President Joe Biden. The pardons were announced just ahead of the annual March for Life rally in Washington, D.C., where Trump addressed the attendees via a pre-recorded video message. In his address, Trump pledged to support anti-abortion-rights protesters during his second term, emphasizing his commitment to stand for families and life. Vice President JD Vance also spoke at the event, celebrating the pardons and praising Trump's previous actions on abortion, including the appointment of anti-abortion judges and the overturning of Roe v.
