Vice President J.D. Vance addressed thousands at the March for Life event in Washington, D.C., emphasizing the importance of reversing America’s declining birthrate. In his speech, Vance called for a renewed commitment to family values and criticized past government policies that have overlooked the needs of American families.
Vance expressed concerns over a culture that, he said, discourages parenthood and treats children as burdens instead of blessings. He argued that American society has increasingly embraced a mindset that prioritizes personal fulfillment over the responsibilities of raising children. Vance stressed that a strong nation depends on strong families and urged Americans to prioritize family life.
