Pro-Life Group Endorses Confirmation of Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche

Americans United for Life (AUL) issued a letter today to members of the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary expressing our support of Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, nominated by President Trump to the office of the Attorney General of the United States.

In the letter, AUL writes: “Mr. Blanche’s confirmation as Attorney General would advance the cause of respect for human life in the United States. Through his statements and actions as Acting Attorney General, Mr. Blanche has shown himself to be a sincere advocate for human life and a faithful servant of President Trump’s pro-life agenda.”

Mr. Blanche held the responsibility of the office as Acting Attorney General when the Department of Justice published their report on the weaponization of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (“FACE”) Act against pro-life groups under the Biden Administration.

As Acting Attorney General, he has illuminated inequalities in how the law has been applied by previous administrations and taken great efforts to redress the abuse of the FACE Act. Mr. Blanche is the right nominee to fill the office of Attorney General of the United States.”
