DISCUSSION: Marco Rubio’s Pro-Life Strategy

Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) has laid out a strategy for the pro-life cause, one that he is urging Republicans to adopt:

“First, we need to develop and fight for a compassionate, pro-family agenda that counters caricatures of our beliefs and makes life easier for mothers and their children,” he writes. “Second, we need to put Democrats on the defensive about their extreme support for abortion. Third, we need to tell the truth about what abortion is—the taking of innocent life—and advocate limits to the practice.”

He explained further:

“We must be compassionate and stand with families in crisis, offering support, not judgment, for every life that is brought into this world, and dismantling the false choice between motherhood and opportunity,” Rubio stressed. “We will expose the truth about abortion, from the horrors of late-term abortion to the lack of basic protections for the most vulnerable. Finally, we will rely on common sense, finding areas where even those who disagree can stand together for the sanctity of life.”

What are some ways this could be done?  Do you think this approach would be effective against the aggressive pro-abortion initiatives that have emerged since the overturning of Roe v. Wade?
