Women Speak 2018: A Symposium on Life Without Roe






Catherine Glenn Foster, President & CEO
Americans United for Life


I am so pleased to announce that Americans United for Life will be hosting Women Speak 2018: A Symposium on Life Without Roe. This groundbreaking event will bring together experts and leaders in law, medicine, economics, and the media, to explore the current cultural and political paradigm that argues abortion is necessary for women’s advancement in society. Women Speak 2018 will take place from 9 a.m. to noon on Wednesday, June 13, 2018, in the Allison Auditorium at the Heritage Foundation.

With every election, legislative vote, and Supreme Court case, Planned Parenthood and other abortion industry leaders bombard young women with ominous warnings of how overturning Roe v. Wade will have a major negative impact on their ability to define their education, their careers, and their dreams for the future. Now is the time to rebut this tired argument, using fresh research to show how women can, and will, flourish in a society that does not constitutionalize abortion on demand.

Joining me as confirmed speakers are Erika Bachiochi, Visiting Scholar at Harvard Law School; Dr. Monique V. Chireau, Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Duke University School of Medicine; Dr. Catherine Pakaluk, Assistant Professor of Economics at Catholic University of America; and Mollie Hemingway, Senior Editor of The Federalist. More speakers will be announced soon!

Together with these trailblazing women, AUL will seek to empower young women, policy leaders, the media, and the public with the facts about what a world without Roe v. Wade will truly look like for the women of America.
