A pair of lawmakers on Capitol Hill are working with a leading pro-life group on a measure to help families who experience miscarriage or early pregnancy loss. In several states, the decision over fetal remains is largely left up to the hospital. “The Bereaved Parents Rights Act” would create a more compassionate and consistent national standard. Plus, pro-lifers in Louisiana are pushing to change the terminology around miscarriage; for now, the state says a baby lost to miscarriage died from a form of “abortion.” Also: a closer look at the Pontifical Academy for Life, how its work is more relevant today than when it was founded by Pope John Paul II in 1994, and why it has come under criticism from pro-lifers. And a recap of Canada’s March for Life, where thousands of people rallied for the unborn and against the country’s Medical Aid in Dying, or assisted suicide, program.
