Jim Harbaugh, Michigan Wolverines football Coach has made no secret of his position on the abortion debate.
At the Plymouth Right to Life dinner in Plymouth, MI this past weekend, Harbaugh declared that he believes all life has value and that those who share his viewpoint should be courageous in declaring that.

“I believe in having the courage to let the unborn be born,” Harbaugh, who is Cathloic, said. “I love life. “I believe that life should be loved and respected. These beliefs are rooted in my faith and science. Quoting from Jeremiah, ‘Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. You were set apart by me before your birth. You were appointed prophet of the nations by me.’”
While abortions are being debated in many states, Harbaugh expresses optimism that America will ultimately decide what is good and right.
“I have faith in the American people to ultimately develop the right policies and laws for all lives involved,” Harbaugh said.
In a world where athletes and coaches are afraid to voice pro-life beliefs (or anything that isn’t woke), it is encouraging to see that one man was so willing to boldly declare that he is unashamedly pro-life.
