On Saturday, January 24, 2026, thousands of pro-life Texans from across the state gathered at the Texas Capitol in Austin for the Texas Rally for Life, standing together in unity, hope, and commitment to protecting life in Texas.
Even in frigid temperatures, Texans showed up in remarkable numbers. More than 14 buses traveled from communities across the state, bringing families, students, and advocates together to take part in this powerful annual event.
We are deeply grateful to the more than 50 host committee organizations and to our dedicated speakers who gave their time and voices to speak for life. Their leadership, support, and willingness to brave the cold made this rally possible and meaningful for everyone in attendance.
The Texas Rally for Life is a testament to the compassion and perseverance of Texans who believe every life has value. While Texas continues to lead in protecting life, our work is not finished. We must continue standing for life, supporting mothers and babies, and protecting the pro-life policies that have saved countless lives.
Relive the Rally!
