'''Pro-life''' is the name given to people or organizations who defend the human rights of the unborn child, and who oppose [[abortion|fetal homicide]]. 
 
  
"[[Pro-abortion]]" is the most accurate term for advocates of [[tax]]payer-funded abortion and other advantages for the abortion industry. Many state [[government]]s even pay for abortions using taxpayer dollars, usually due to a court order rather than the will of the people. Supporters of abortion rights prefer the term "[[pro-choice]]", which (regardless of the term used) means they believe the mother of a child should have the right to kill the unborn child for any reason.
 
 
Due to rulings by the [[U.S. Supreme Court]] (e.g. [[Roe v. Wade]]), the [[United States]] allows abortions during the first trimester for any reason, and during the second trimester only for medical reasons (i.e. - when the life of the pregnant woman is at risk due to complications related to the pregnancy).
 
 
In [[America]]n politics, the [[Republican Party|Republican]] and [[Constitution Party|Constitution]] Parties are strongly opposed to abortion on a moral basis and believe it should be illegal.  The [[Democrat Party]] supports abortion and opposes legal restrictions. Leaders in the Democrat Party, such as its presidential candidates, also support taxpayer-funded abortion. Vanishingly few Democrat politicians, such as the [[Blue Dog]] Democrats, hold pro-life views, while a few Republicans such as [[Rudy Giuliani]] hold pro-choice views.
 
 
The phrase "pro-life," especially in the [[Catholic Church]], may include other positions in defense of human life, such as opposing attempts by hospitals or hospices to deny care to premature infants or elderly patients, or to engage in [[euthanasia]].
