As Pride Month Kicks Off, Ted Cruz Leads Anti-Abortion Push To Make June 'Life Month'

Sens. Todd Young (Ind.) and Ted Cruz (Texas) are leading Republican efforts to brand June as “Life Month” during the already celebrated Pride Month, which honors the achievements and culture of the LGBTQ+ community.

“Every human life is worthy of protection, and it is especially incumbent upon Americans and lawmakers to protect the most vulnerable among us,” Cruz said in a statement on X, formerly Twitter.

According to Young’s statement introducing the resolution, “Life Month” is meant to “recognize the dignity of human life, commends those who promote life, and encourages policymakers to continue providing resources to empower women and families to choose life.”

While the senators did have 11 other months they could designate as “Life Month,” they said the resolution marks June as the anniversary of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade in June 2022.

Cruz and Young’s pitch rings similar to Illinois Congresswoman Mary Miller’s resolution, which suggested fully replacing “Pride Month” with “Family Month.”

“By recognizing June as Family Month, we reject the lie of ‘Pride’ and instead honor God’s timeless and perfect design,” Miller told right-wing news site The Daily Wire.

Neither Cruz nor Young said they want to replace Pride Month, but their actions come at a time where the Trump administration has launched aggressive attacks against the LGBTQ+ community.

A total of 26 Republican senators co-sponsored the resolution, including Alabama’s Tommy Tuberville and South Carolina’s Lindsey Graham.

“If we are going to dedicate entire months to recognizing every group under the sun, the least we can do is dedicate June to protecting unborn babies,” Tuberville said on X.

That’s a weird flex. I mean, who has fewer abortions than gay people?

If they really want women and families empowered to choose life, they should try making medical services for prenatal care, childbirth, and pronatal care courtesy of the US government.

It’s always very important, when a pro-lifer says a rape victim should carry her child to term and consider adoption, to ask them, ‘How many unwanted babies have you adopted? None? Anyone in your family adopted an unwanted child? How about people you know - your co-workers, your friends, your fellow members of The Minding Other People’s Business Society? None of those, huh? Then it would be greatly appreciated if you’d shut the fuck up.’

Nothing says "small government" quite like sticking it up inside a woman's uterus.

It’s a good thing men are (by and large) running things. Otherwise, the government would give itself the authority to fiddle with my balls, and I will NOT allow that.

Well, not for free, anyway…

Just like common prostitutes, the politicians in the government will charge you for that too, so yeah.
