D.C. Medical Examiner Halts Disposal of Late-Term Aborted Babies

The decision comes after a concerted effort by pro-life activists, conservative lawmakers, and legal pressure.

The D.C. Medical Examiner's Office announced it will not immediately destroy the bodies of five late-term aborted babies, following pressure from pro-life activists and conservative lawmakers.
The American Center for Law & Justice (ACLJ) played a key role, threatening legal action and highlighting the babies' rights for a proper burial.
Republican lawmakers, including Sen. Ted Cruz and Reps. Chip Roy, Andy Biggs, and Pat Fallon, have called for a halt to the disposal and demanded an investigation.
The ACLJ and other pro-life advocates are pushing for a formal investigation into the circumstances of the babies' deaths, suspecting violations of federal law.
The decision to halt the disposal has been celebrated by pro-life activists as a victory, emphasizing the importance of grassroots action and continued pressure for justice.
