Now it's time for The Anchorman Show.

I'm Matt Gates, host of the Matt Gates Show here on One America News.

And in this episode of Anchorman, we're going to get into an issue that has really been a wedge point in American

politics for the better part of a generation. It's the issue of abortion. And we have one of

the inspiring young activists who's fighting for the cause for life among a generation who needs

to hear this message. She's taking it to the belly of the beast in Southern California

and around the country. Welcome to Anchorman, Kristen taking it to the belly of the beast in Southern California and around

the country. Welcome to Anchorman, Kristen Hawkins, the president of Students for Life and Students for

Life Action. Appreciate you being here with me. Maybe start by telling us a little bit about yourself

where you grew up and what brought you to the pro-life movement. Sure. Thanks for having, Matt.

This is exciting to be here in your all's neck of the woods in Southern California today.

I got started in the pro-life movement simply because I was asked if I wanted to volunteer for a

local pregnancy resource center.

I was 15 in the Ohio Valley.

I grew up in northern West Virginia outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. And, you know, I was 15 in the Ohio Valley. I grew up in northern West Virginia outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

And, you know, I was strong in my faith. I was raised, you know, well, I would say in my evangelical

church, Sunday morning, Sunday night, Wednesday, and sometimes Saturday nights. But we didn't

really talk about abortion too much. And it wasn't really until I had that opportunity

to go to this pregnancy center at 15 years old, to be trained and invested in to really be able to

sit down couch to couch with women who are coming into the center thinking abortion was their only

option.

That's really where I learned what was happening inside of Planned Parenthood and other abortion facilities every day.
