WASHINGTON, D.C., January 18, 2019 In a surprise appearance, President Donald Trump addressed pro-life advocates at the 2019 March for Life, telling them that
"every life is worth protecting"
and that he will veto any legislation that crosses his desk that "weakens the protection of human life."
"Today, I have signed a letter to Congress to make clear that if they send any legislation to my desk that weakens the protection of human life, I will issue a veto. And, we have the support to uphold those vetoes. Every child is a sacred gift from God," he said in a pre-recorded video message.
Trump sent his message via large screens set up in the National Mall in Washington, D.C. for the March for Life Rally.
