'''Feminists for Life''' is an organization that claims to be "[[pro-life]]" and attracts many pro-life college students to it based on that image.  In fact, the organization has filed few-to-none pro-life [[amicus brief]]s in key [[abortion]] cases since 2000.<ref>It did join "The Fund for Animals" and other diverse groups in an amicus brief in 2002 in ''Schielder v. NOW'', which concerned the issue of applying racketeering laws against interest groups.</ref>  Moreover, its own list of accomplishments features demonstrates that it has often supported [[liberal]] government programs that were not supported by other [[pro-life]] groups.<ref>http://www.feministsforlife.org/news/accomplishments.htm</ref>
