The following is a press release from Arkansas Right to Life.
LITTLE ROCK – The 46th Annual March for Life is set for 2 p.m., Jan. 21, 2024, along Capital Avenue to the front of the steps of the Arkansas State Capitol.
This observance is a peaceful and prayerful event that attracts thousands of Arkansans from across the state including churches and families to remember the estimated 60-plus million unborn children killed by legal abortion.
The event, sponsored by Arkansas Right to Life (ARTL), will remember the 51st anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion in the United States on January 22, 1973.
“We will never forget the thousands of unborn babies in Arkansas and the millions nationwide who were killed by abortion as a result of Roe v. Wade,” said Rose Mimms, executive director of Arkansas Right to Life. “Even with the overturning of that tragic court decision, our work to defend and protect pregnant mothers and their unborn children is as fierce as ever.”
Staging for the march begins at 1:30 p.m. at State Street. At 2 p.m., ARTL President Wayne Mays will lead the marchers along with elected officials, invited dignitaries, and other special guests to the steps of the State Capitol for a brief program.

Arkansas Right to Life, the state’s oldest and largest pro-life organization, is an affiliate of the National Right to Life Committee, the leading voice of the voiceless dedicated to protecting all human beings threatened by abortion, infanticide, and euthanasia.
