Catholic Medical Association to Join Tens of Thousands in First Ever Post-Roe March for Life

WASHINGTON, DC- January, 20, 2023- Members of The Catholic Medical Association (CMA) will take to the streets of Washington, DC today to participate in the 50th annual March for Life.

“Today we join thousands in the first ever post Roe March for Life, a truly historic day in our country,” said CMA President, Craig Treptow, M.D.

The theme of the 2023 March for Life is Next Steps: Marching in a post-Roe America. March for Life says its theme “advocates to continue boldly marching in defense of the unborn – both on the state and federal level – and advocating for a minimum federal standard to protect innocent life against radical pro-abortion legislation. ”

The theme resonates greatly with CMA and the work of its members.

In the years and months leading up to the historic Supreme Court of the United States decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, CMA contributed moral and medical expertise to the discourse.

“Our members worked tirelessly to share the science and promote the truth that life begins at conception,” added Dr. Treptow.

Members of the CMA participating in the March for Life will wear their white coats to underscore the important role science plays in the recognition of the unborn as a person.

CMA is proud to march this year to show its gratitude to God for the overturning of Roe and as a reminder to legislators and others that we will continue to advocate for the life and dignity of all persons whether on a state or federal level.

We continue to pray for the lives lost and affected by abortion.
