In a significant move, former President Trump has pardoned 23 anti-abortion activists who were convicted under the FACE Act for blockading clinic entrances. These actions have sparked praise among Republican lawmakers, with many describing the pardons as restoring justice for pro-life advocates who faced what they deemed persecution by the Biden administration. The pardons were made just a day before the annual March for Life rally, marking a strategic alignment with pro-life supporters. Among those pardoned is pro-life activist Paul Vaughn, who expressed joy over his two-year ordeal finally coming to an end. The decision has been celebrated by organizations like the Alliance Defending Freedom, which commended Trump for standing up for pro-life values.
