Overton's confirmation hearing is expected after the Senate returns from its summer recess on Sept. 14.NBC NewsDOJ hosts anti-abortion advocates after it fired staff for work with abortion-rights orgsAnti-abortion advocates from Americans United for Life, led by CEO John Mize, met with Justice Department Civil Rights Division officials on Wednesday, hours after the Trump administration fired at least four prosecutors based on a report claiming the Biden-era DOJ improperly collaborated with abortion-rights organizations to enforce the FACE Act.PR NewswireIn the UK, AUL President & CEO calls on British Officials and Hospital Leadership to Allow Parents to Make Treatment Choices for Charlie GardAmericans United for Life President and CEO Catherine Glenn Foster called on British officials and Great Ormond Street Hospital leadership in London to allow Charlie Gard's parents to make treatment decisions for their 11-month-old son, who suffers from a rare genetic disorder called mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome. Foster, who traveled from Washington D.C. to London after being invited by the family, joined other U.S. pro-life leaders in high-level meetings advocating for the parents' right to control their son's care amid an ongoing legal dispute over life support removal. The international campaign has garnered support from the Pope, the U.S. President, 37 European parliamentarians, and hospitals offering alternative treatment options.PR NewswireAmericans United for Life Mourns the Passing of Norma McCorvey "who became a Pro-Life Champion Addressing the Tragic Errors in Roe V. Wade, her namesake abortion case"Americans United for Life mourned Norma McCorvey's death, noting her pro-life advocacy after the 1973 Roe v. Wade case.

Hellerstedt struck down Texas regulations requiring abortion clinics to meet the same health and safety standards as other outpatient surgical facilities and requiring individual abortion providers to maintain hospital-admitting privileges. Americans United for Life, an anti-abortion advocacy organization, criticized the ruling, claiming it prioritizes the abortion industry's profits over women's health and safety. The organization stated it would continue its efforts to regulate abortion providers through legislatures and courts, noting that only 6 states currently require abortion clinics to meet the same standards as other outpatient surgery facilities.PR NewswireAUL's Yoest Calls Justice Scalia's Death "a Tragic Loss" and urges the Senate to confirm a worthy successor after the electionAmericans United for Life President and CEO Dr. Charmaine Yoest issued a statement calling Justice Antonin Scalia's death 'a tragic loss' and praising his commitment to constitutional interpretation and the pro-life cause.
