In the wake of the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade, abortion has once again been thrust to the forefront of national politics, and it is likely to be a key issue in the 2024 presidential election.

On both sides of the issue, advocates are grounded in personal convictions that may appear impossible to reconcile. For those who identify as “pro-choice,” the choice to abort an unwanted child is considered a right that all women should enjoy. But for those who identify as “pro-life,” the procedure presents a violation of the most fundamental right of all—life.
