Every day seems to bring a new challenge for post-Roe America. Emergent lawsuits seek to prevent smartphone data from revealing abortion-clinic visits. Upcoming elections in many states promise to be highly charged referendums on abortion access. And increasing violence by way of attacks on crisis-pregnancy centers makes clear that we are engaged in the fight of our lives.
Another sinister reality that we have so far been spared? The battle to ban silent prayer in front of abortion facilities. Thanks to the robust freedoms that Americans enjoy, and diligently protect, we have yet to see the day when we are stopped from holding a life-affirming sign in front of our local Planned Parenthood, much less restricted from gathering to pray, peacefully and silently. Not so in Europe. Americans, take heed.
