I read the good news that 12 Governors of Republican states and 282 members of Congress petitioned the U S Supreme Court to overturn Roe v Wade, and that is the BEST news I have read in a long time. Even better news will be when SCOTUS does reverse that Roe decision, since the U S Congress never amended the U S Constitution to include any such [fake] right as the right to kill one's offspring. Here are two of those articles :
Alabama's Governor Kay Ivey backs bill to overturn Roe V Wade, and so does Missouri's Gov Parsons, Attorney General and U S Senator:

"Missouri's top statewide Republicans, including the governor, attorney general and a U.S. senator, are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn its landmark abortion rights decision.
In briefs filed to the court this week, prominent conservatives from the Show-Me State joined a host of GOP coalitions asking the court to overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision,
as part of a Mississippi case involving a state law that bans most abortions after 15 weeks.
The court agreed to hear the case during its next term, marking what could be a significant challenge to the legalization of abortion at a time when conservatives hold a 6-3 majority on the court."

I looked up as many of the Bible verses about life as I could find today and I am putting them here for all the world to read. I study The Holy Bible seeking wisdom and believe me it is there in the Bible. These verses about life, how to have life, how to be healed, how to be blessed, what to do, what not to do. A tapestry is a story woven, told in multi-colored threads into fabric. These scriptures will tell God's vieiwpoint on human life as if you viewed a story formed with colored threads.
It is written:
All scriptures in the King James Holy Bible. If you read each of these, you will conclude that God's preference is that each human should know Him, and live and thrive but that God does not force that.

Also, I received this via email about an NBC TV show that showed an ultrasound of a human baby :https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/culture/karen-townsend/2020/01/15/nbc-cop-dramas-pro-life-moment-hearing-heartbeat-shows. I want to publicly thank NBC TV for that episode, and the newsbusters for publicizing it. When our culture begins to promote the idea that humans in the womb are HUMAN we will be able to change our laws to respect human life again.
