Missouri lawmaker says this year's March for Life was unlike anything she's seen

Missouri State Rep Mary Elizabeth Coleman says she made it to the annual March for Life in Washington, DC last week, "I never miss it."

"It was electric, I have never seen it quite like this, people were dancing, but you know, it's a long walk. You stand in the cold, listen to some speakers, and I think they said 120,000 people walk up Constitution Avenue, walk past the Supreme Court. And people were dancing when they got to the Supreme Court, and cheering!" says Coleman. "It's a young crowd. It's an energetic crowd."

Coleman tells the Marc Cox Morning Show that the hearing of the case in the Supreme Court fuels that energy.

"This is an issue that people have been fighting for almost 50 years. There has been a March for Life every year since this disastrous opinion, and I think people are feeling really hopeful that this is, this is a year it's gonna change."
