The March for Life typically draws crowds in the hundreds of thousands, but a pair of winter storms this year is forcing many large groups to cancel their pilgrimages to Washington, D.C. The Dioceses of St. Louis, Boston, Worcester, Lansing, and La Crosse have all canceled their trips, and several schools have canceled theirs as well, much to the disappointment of young pro-lifers.
