pro-lifers

Fetal rights advocates

Pro-lifers are people who oppose abortion, typically believing that human life begins at conception and that terminating a pregnancy is morally wrong.

The term comes from the movement's self-description as "pro-life," positioning abortion as a life-or-death issue: Pro-lifers gathered outside the clinic.

Some pro-lifers extend their position to opposing euthanasia or capital punishment, though the term most commonly refers to abortion opponents.
