The counselor to President Donald Trump greeted wildly cheering crowds at today's March for Life in Washington with the words: "I am Kellyanne Conway. I am a wife, a mother, a Catholic, counselor to the president of the United States of America and yes, I am pro-life!"

She told the crowd that the Trump administration is committed to protecting and defending the child in the womb.

"This is a time of incredible promise for the pro-life, pro-adoption movement," she said.

As Trump's campaign manager, Conway was the first woman from either major party to lead a presidential candidate to victory in the general election.

Conway, who turned 50 on inauguration day, was a senior member of the Trump transition team before being appointed Counselor to the President.

"Steps away from here, in the White House, a president and a vice president sit at their desks and make decisions for our nation. As they sit there, they stand here with you," Conway told the crowd.

As if to illustrate this, Vice President Mike Pence spoke after Conway's brief address.

"Their impassioned defenses of life as presidential candidates showed a nation that courage and conviction can overcome indifference and insults," she said.

"So to the March for Life 2017, allow me to make it very clear: we hear you, we see you, we respect you, and we look forward to working with you, and yes, we walk, we march, we run, and we endeavor forward with you." (Photo via Yahoo News)

She congratulated the pro-life marchers for their commitment.

"Your conviction, your resolve and your faith are impressive and consequential," Conway said. "This is a new day and a new dawn for life."

"Why are we here? What does it mean to stand together to be part of this incredible movement, to face criticism, ridicule, laws and lawmakers that diminish and erode our most basic right and the bedrock of our society?" she asked.

"It means to protect and promote the most precious gift in the world, the gift of life," Conway stated.

"It means to stand up, tall and stand together against the indifference and the indefensible, and to stand up, stand tall and stand together on behalf of babies in the womb."

The "dismissive notion of out of sight is out of mind is over," Conway said. "Science and medicine have joined religion and morality in causing many Americans to rethink just how fragile and...
