With great sorrow, we mark the passing of Pope Francis on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025, at the age of 88. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord, and he leaves behind a profound legacy of advocating for the dignity of human life.

Massachusetts Citizens for Life is proud to sponsor and advocate for several important bills in the 2025-2026 legislative session. These bills are designed to protect the rights of women, provide crucial support for families, and safeguard the dignity of life in our state. As we move forward, we need your help to ensure these bills gain the support they deserve.

In 2023, 24,355 abortions occurred in Massachusetts, with 5,744 (almost 1 in 4) of them performed through telehealth. However, only 1,397 of those telehealth abortions were for Massachusetts residents, meaning that a significant number of abortions were performed for out-of-state women.

Massachusetts Citizens for Life is building grassroots Action Teams in each of the Commonwealth’s 160 legislative districts. This is your chance to make a real impact in your community and strengthen the pro-life movement!
