The 2019 theme is “Unique from Day One: Pro-Life is Pro-Science.”
Shapiro has been a vocal supporter of the pro-life movement and regularly uses his site’s YouTube channel to speak out against abortion. One of his most recent arguments was that if Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh had been pro-choice, “he would have been confirmed with 100 votes.”

Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
