Anthony List\u2019s Campaign for Life Gala in Washington, D.C. on Monday. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When discussing her accomplishment of banning late-term abortion as governor in the state of South Carolina, Haley said progressive feminists attempted to erase her and de-legitimize all pro-life women by calling them &#8220;traitors to their gender.&#8221; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Unfortunately, many on the left use the abortion debate to divide women and demand conformity. They do this in the name of feminism, but that is not real feminism,&#8221; said Haley. &#8220;The idea that women must adhere to a particular set of values is one of the most anti-women ideas in today\u2019s culture. It is a rejection of the ideas of equality and tolerance that the women\u2019s movement is supposed to be all about.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none; overflow: hidden;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FFoxBusiness%2Fvideos%2F297970534413670%2F&amp;show_text=1&amp;width=560\" width=\"560\" height=\"426\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But conscious of her opponents on the left, Haley attempted to model that tolerance that she hoped for herself and others like her. &#8220;As a pro-life, female governor, I was blessed with a unique platform, and I made every effort to use it appropriately \u2014 not to lob attacks at people who disagreed with me, not to diminish the other side, but to re-frame the debate,&#8221; Haley said. Being pro-life is not advocating against women, she said. It\u2019s promoting &#8220;a baby\u2019s right to live, the most basic right there is.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Haley has personal reasons to be pro-life. In her speech, she talked about her husband&#8217;s difficult childhood in foster care. &#8220;Foster care can be amazing, but it was not kind to Michael and his siblings. It was unkind. Luckily,\u00a0<\/span>when Michael was five, he and his sister were adopted by a kind, loving couple, who couldn\u2019t have children of their own.&#8221; Haley added that she often thinks about what might have happened if his biological mother or adoptive parents had chosen a different path. Because of this, she said, &#8220;I am pro-life because I get to spend every day with my husband knowing that I am blessed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/why-do-pro-life-women-get-hate-simple-theyre-winning\/\">Why do pro-life women get hate?

I can\u2019t stomach the idea that we wouldn\u2019t do everything in our power to protect and nurture those lives.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/liveactionnewsonline\/\">\u201cLike\u201d Live Action News on Facebook<\/a>\u00a0for more pro-life news and commentary!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nikki Haley, former US Ambassador to the United Nations, called out the forced conformity of abortion supporters in the spotlight during her address as the keynote speaker at Susan B.
