Missouri Right to Life, the largest and oldest pro-life organization in Missouri and the sole state affiliate of National Right to Life, hosted this blockbuster event to support the “Yes on 3” campaign. This campaign aims to restore protections for unborn children and their mothers in Missouri and prevent gender transitions on minors.

Jessica Flanagain of Axiom Strategies shared insights into the group’s winning campaign strategy, energizing the crowd with a clear path forward. President Steve Rupp emphasized the significance of the Amendment 3 campaign, stating, “The Amendment 3 battle is bigger than one ballot and bigger than Missouri. It is about the child in the womb who has no voice, the mother who’s told abortion is her only option, the parents who deserve to be involved in their children’s medical treatments, and the culture that must decide whether life still matters.”

The evening was marked by strong support and enthusiasm from attendees, reinforcing Missouri Right to Life’s commitment to protecting life and shaping a culture that values every human being.
