The goal of organizers in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.italianinsider.it\/?q=node\/6761\">previous years<\/a> has been to attract 100,000 people to the March &#8212; one for each of the 100,000 preborn children aborted in Italy each year.

She said the March for Life in Washington, D.C., shows what is possible through pro-life activism of more than 40 years. Coda Nunziante says, as a result of the U.S. March for Life and the pro-life advocacy surrounding it, \u201can entire generation of young people is becoming more and more pro-life and with their enthusiasm and determination the destiny of the country will change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/pro-life-ads-italy-abortion\/\">Pro-life ads in Italy anger feminists\u2026 by pointing out how abortion kills females<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l5cKchJ3kAI\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She praised President Donald Trump\u2019s pro-life policies, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifesitenews.com\/news\/interview-on-rome-march-for-life\">saying<\/a>, \u201cQuite aside from any judgment about the man, there is no doubt that the Trump administration has given great attention to the issue of life. I cannot imagine a President in any European country who, as soon as he is elected, cuts public funding for abortion.\u201d Insofar as Trump has demonstrated his commitment to pro-life policy, she says European pro-lifers \u201cwould like our politicians to have his courage in this specific respect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Currently, Italy faces legislation legalizing assisted suicide and removing conscientious objections. Italy remains a strongly pro-life culture; in parts of Italy, <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/italy-90-percent-doctors-refuse-abortions\/\">90 percent of doctors refuse to commit abortions<\/a>. Elective abortion was legalized for the first three months of pregnancy in Italy in <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/a-mothers-day-march-in-italy\/\">1978<\/a>. The law requires women undergoing an elective abortion to take a one-week reflection period and obtain approval from a doctor.<\/p>\n<p>Coda Nunziante says the hope for this year\u2019s March for Life in Rome is to build on the work of previous years. She <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifesitenews.com\/news\/interview-on-rome-march-for-life\">said<\/a>, \u201cOur strength lies not so much in the number of people who take to the streets, but in the consistency and perseverance of a battle that we continue to fight year after year, without falling back, but instead always gaining ground.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/liveactionnewsonline\/\">\u201cLike\u201d Live Action News on Facebook<\/a> for more pro-life news and commentary!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Saturday, May 18, Rome will host its ninth annual\u00a0March for Life.
