President Donald Trump’s first term boasted so many pro-life victories that he has been called the most pro-life president in American history. Despite this, his lackluster pro-life support and promises on the 2024 campaign trail concerned many pro-life advocates. Flinching under the Biden administration’s abortion excesses, many pro-lifers feared that Trump was no longer interested in their plight.

But during his second term, his first two weeks in office alone have achieved more than self-proclaimed pro-life champions in Congress achieved throughout the past four years. In week one, Trump signed an executive order enforcing the Hyde Amendment, which protects taxpayers from being forced to fund or promote elective abortions through their tax dollars. He also pardoned 23 pro-life advocates, whom the Biden administration had ruthlessly persecuted and unjustly jailed through the Freedom to Access Clinic Entrances Act. These pro-life advocates, including elderly death-camp survivor Eva Edl, are now home with their families.

Trump then issued a memo demanding that the FACE Act no longer be weaponized against pro-life advocates. It’s long been clear that the act — which is intended to protect pro-life organizations, abortion clinics, and churches — is merely a tool of the pro-abortion left to punish political enemies. Thanks to Trump’s memo, only the most egregious violations of the FACE Act will be prosecuted. No longer will pro-life advocates spend up to 11 years in jail for praying.

Mere days after his inauguration, Trump also sent a video message to the March for Life listing his pride in helping overturn Roe v. Wade and the various ways he hoped to right the pro-abortion overreaches of the Biden administration and help vulnerable women and children.

That same day, Trump signed an executive order reinstating the Mexico City policy, effectively ensuring that American taxpayer dollars will no longer fund abortions overseas. He also signaled that the United States will rejoin the Geneva Consensus Declaration, which clarifies that there is “no international right to abortion.” And just this past Friday, Trump ensured that the Pentagon will no longer be illegally funding abortions for military service members and their families.

Trump’s pro-life victories over the past two weeks are a reminder that grandiose promises mean little without tangible action. On an issue as paramount as abortion, the pro-life movement’s focus must be on results rather than talking points and political action rather than promises.

It’s no secret that Trump is an unlikely vessel for the pro-life cause. Yet he has shown a willingness to put into action what he once would not verbally support. It’s up to the pro-life movement to keep the pressure on Trump to continue protecting the rights of pro-life activists and, most importantly, the lives of the unborn.
