Vice President Mike Pence and second lady Karen Pence made a surprise visit Friday to the annual March for Life in Washington, DC.

Pence first called into Ben Shapiro’s show as Shapiro broadcasted live from the March for Life, however, he later shocked the crowd by appearing in person with his wife, Karen. The Pence family took the stage and the vice president delivered a speech affirming their pro-life values and touting President Donald Trump’s appointment of conservative judges to federal courts.

The vice president also mentioned his wife’s decision to teach art at a Christian elementary school, a move that some have criticized due to the school’s traditional values, but the March for Life crowd applauded.

 

Pence also spoke at the March, which draws hundreds of thousands pro-life activists each year, in 2017.
