March for Life

Right to Life of Idaho sponsors the annual March for Life in downtown Boise, an excellent opportunity to stand as a witness for life to our community.

The Boise March for Life is taking place January 24th at 1pm beginning at Julia Davis Park and ending with a rally on the steps of the State Capitol. Matt Britton, Esq general counsel and board ex-officio for 40 Days for Life Institute for Law and Justice will be our keynote speaker. He has spoken all across the world and will now be coming to Idaho! In 2025 we saw 2000 people attend!

2026 will bring unique challenges as a ballot measure tries to undermine our pro-life laws. We remember the over 63 million unborn children that have been lost since the infamous Roe v Wade Supreme Court ruling. Since the 2022 Dobbs decision new leaves are turning over, particularly in Idaho where abortion is illegal with few exceptions.

It is not time to sit down, but to double down! Please join us in standing up for the sanctity of all life! Please spread the word to your family and friends, no one walks alone!
