WASHINGTON (LifeSiteNews) – As the U.S. Supreme Court considers the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization abortion case, pro-life groups are being called to rally together outside of the court on “Decision Day” to celebrate the anticipated overturning of nationwide legal abortion.

The eagerly awaited Dobbs ruling, which concerns Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban, could see Supreme Court Justices overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling which permitted abortion in all 50 U.S. states, according to a leaked draft Supreme Court opinion published in May.

In anticipation of the potential overturning of Roe, Christian anti-abortion activist group Revelation 3:2 Project has urged pro-life Americans nationwide to travel to Washington D.C. to celebrate the end of legal abortion in all 50 states on the day the Dobbs decision is published.

“After nearly 50 years of the most extreme abortion policy on earth dominating the national conversation, the era of Roe v. Wade is finally coming to a close,” Revelation 3:2 Project spokesman Jonathan Darnel said in a press release obtained by LifeSiteNews. “This leaked draft opinion is the first truly sane statement on abortion we’ve received from the Federal government in decades. No one has a Constitutional right to kill their unborn child!”

On the day the Supreme Court delivers its decision on Dobbs, which “is expected by the end of June,” “anti-abortion advocates will gather for a rally … to be held (tentatively) at 5:30 p.m. at the intersection of First Street and East Capitol Street NE, right outside the east entrance to the U.S. Capitol grounds,” the statement reads.

“The rally in Washington will be one of over 60 pro-life ‘Decision Day’ rallies being organized by the OverturnRoe.org coalition.”

Continuing, Darnel lamented the “tepid and cowardly response of pro-life America” to legal abortion over the last 49 years. “The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution state that no person shall be denied their basic right to life. Instead of obeying the Constitution and defying the Supreme Court, pro-life politicians, organizations, and citizens have hidden behind the Roe decision and allowed child-killing to fester coast to coast like a disease.”

“Now,” he added, “God grants us one final opportunity to make things right.”

Roe is history, and pro-life America has no excuses left. I call on each anti-abortion leader in every state to demand the immediate outlawing of abortion, and each anti-abortion citizen to re-orient their life in pursuit of a world where child-killing is unthinkable.”

Although overturning Roe would mark a huge leap towards restoring justice for the unborn, Revelation 3:2 Project recognized that much work will still be required to ensure that states outlaw abortion and protect innocent lives in the womb. They thus exhort pro-life Americans to “’get serious’ about ending abortion and exhibit the zealous, sacrificial behavior conducive to that end.”
