pro-life stance
Against terminating pregnancies
A pro-life stance is opposition to abortion, typically grounded in the belief that human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection.
The position often extends to opposing embryonic stem cell research and euthanasia.
Her pro-life stance shaped how she voted on judicial nominees.
The term frames the position as defending life, while opponents prefer "anti-abortion" or "anti-choice."
