Equal Protection for the Unborn: The Case Abortion Abolitionists Are Making

We sit down with Wes Fuller of End Abortion Now to introduce our pro-life audience to the growing abortion abolitionist movement. What exactly is abortion abolitionism, and how does it differ from the incremental pro-life strategies many of us have supported for years? Wes unpacks the biblical call for the abolition of abortion through equal protection under the law.
