Trump signs pardons for 23 anti-abortion protesters

President Donald Trump has pardoned 23 pro-life protesters convicted under the FACE Act during former President Joe Biden's administration.
Trump stated, "We released 23 people that were unjustly put in and having to do with pro-life, and they will be released, and they'll be out very shortly."
Republican Sen. Josh Hawley described the prosecution of anti-abortion protesters as "a grotesque assault on the principles of this country" and urged Trump to pardon them.
The pardons came ahead of the March for Life protest in Washington, where Trump is expected to address the crowd in a video.
