This Friday, the 26th annual March for Life will take place in Washington, D.C. Thousands of anti-abortion protesters will gather on the Mall to advocate the revocation of Roe v. Wade and the adoption of a "human life amendment to the Constitution."

The plan includes $5.5 billion for an annual $1,000 tax credit for those who need or are providing care, and $125 million to pay for caregiver courses and respite services. Clinton could not have found a sweeter spot, since 5 million Americans need such care, a necessity that has a quarter of families caring for a relative over 50. Yet with the national average cost of care being $47,000 a year, the $1,000 credit...
