Life, liberty at 'core of our national character,' Boehner tells U.S. rally

U.S. House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio address the crowd during the annual March for Life rally in Washington Jan. 23. The annual pro-life demonstration marks the 1973 Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion across the U.S..

WASHINGTON - Americans "as a people are pro-life" because life and liberty "are intertwined and form the core of our national character," House Speaker John Boehner told the crowd gathered on the National Mall Jan. 23 for the 39th annual March for Life.

"God who gave us life gave us liberty," said the Ohio Republican, who is a Catholic. He added that his pro-life stand isn't political, "it's just who I am."

He and the other members of Congress who spoke at the rally said they were proud they had passed the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act and the Protect Life Act and voted to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and defund Planned Parenthood.
