Thousands gathered at the Capitol for the annual event sponsored by Arkansas Right to Life marking the 49th anniversary of the Jan. 22, 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion in the United States.
Among those attending the march was former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee who remarked about the keynote speakers, “(They were) two of the most powerful speakers I’ve ever heard at any pro-life event.”
Those speakers were Jeff Langston, a business owner, and Bruce Trice, a six-generation Arkansan who served on the board of a local pregnancy center for seven years and as its development director.
