While thousands of pro-life Americans prepare to attend the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C., the Jesuit University of Scranton, located in Pennsylvania, makes very different preparations.


Marjorie Margolies Former Congresswoman and avowed abortion advocate Marjorie Margolies has been invited to give the keynote speech at the University of Scranton’s Ready to Run: Campaign Training for Women program.  The event is scheduled on January 28, according to the university’s web site.

One wonders how this Catholic university qualifies invited speakers. Clearly not on the grounds of Catholicism, since Ms. Margolies has publicly taken action against the Church’s timeless teachings on the sanctity of innocent human life. Particularly notable is her persistent opposition to the Hyde Amendment, which restricts the use of federal funds to procure abortion, even going so far as to say that:

“If the Year of the Woman showed how far women had come, the day of the Hyde Amendment vote showed how much further women had to go.”1
