66 Million Dead Unburn Remembered on National Day of Remembrance On the National Day of Remembrance for Aborted Children, set for Friday, pro-life advocates across the United States will gather to honor the estimated 66 million unborn children lost to abortion since its nationwide legalization in 1973. In Albuquerque, New Mexico, a graveside memorial service at 5:30 p.m. at Sandia Memorial Gardens will commemorate the sanctity of these lives, underscoring the ongoing fight to protect the unborn amid a deeply divided nation. The annual observance, now in its 12th year, calls attention to the profound loss of innocent human life and the enduring pain of mothers affected by abortion. Pro-life groups emphasize that each unborn child, endowed with inherent dignity from conception, deserves remembrance and justice, even as states grapple with conflicting abortion policies following the 2022 overturning of Roe v. Wade.
