Congressman King makes prediction during remarks at today's 38th Annual March for Life Rally

Washington D.C.- Congressman Steve King (R-IA) released the following statement after addressing the 38th Annual March for Life rally this afternoon. The March for Life is held each year to encourage Congress to enact pro-life legislation and to petition the Supreme Court to overturn the Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion. After addressing the rally, Congressman King hosted a reception in the Rayburn House Office Building for Iowans who had travelled to Washington to participate in the March for Life.

"For 38 years Americans have come here to pray and march for life," said King. "Thomas Jefferson said a generation is 19 years; that's two generations of Americans that have been here. Millions of Americans come here, make friends, march, pray for life, and deploy back across America to do the same. Because of the dedication of these generations of Americans, I am confident that we will see the end of Roe v. Wade in our time."
