Miege on the March

Despite chilling temperatures that hovered in the 30s and intermittent rain that forced them to put on ponchos and assorted rain gear, 44 students from Bishop Miege High School in Roeland Park took part in the 39th annual March for Life in Washington, D.C.
The march started at the National Mall, where participants heard speeches by House Speaker John Boehner, an Ohio Republican, who is a Catholic; U.S. Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., a Catholic who is chairman of the Congressional Pro-Life Caucus; and Nellie Gray, founder and president of the March for Life Education and Defense Fund, the group that organizes the march.
Following the speeches, the marchers headed to Constitution Avenue, past the Capitol and up to the Supreme Court.
