Pro-life is the name given to people or organizations who defend the rights of the unborn child, and who oppose abortion.
While "pro-abortion" would be an accurate term for those who profit from and support taxpayer funding of abortion, pro-choice is the term preferred by liberals.

In American politics, the Republican and Constitution Parties are strongly opposed to abortion and believe it should be illegal. The Democratic and Libertarian Parties both support abortion and oppose legal restrictions (libertarians themselves are divided on the issue).
