Many years ago, well before Roe v. Wade , this young man was asked to serve on the board of Americans United for Life, a Chicago-based organization, at the urging of such honored seniors as Henry Hyde and Paul Ramsey. AUL continues to be on the leading edge of campaigns for the culture of life, providing research and strategy planning for incremental pro-life measures in dozens of states, and laying the groundwork, legal and political, for the reversal of Roe v. Wade .
AUL is in the process of looking for a new president. If you or someone you know might be the person they’re looking for, write AUL Search, P.O. Box 436987, Chicago, IL 60643, addressed to the attention of Iris Gordon. If you have questions about AUL, you might contact Prof. Richard Stith at Valparaiso Law School.
Dear Reader,
Can I be direct with you?
War abroad. Socialists on the rise. AI upending human life. Endless uproar online. The modern attention economy doesn’t want readers — it wants users enslaved to the tyranny of the present.
First Things is the antidote: literary excellence, timeless truths, and a fixed point of reference in a culture that has lost its bearings.
But we can’t do it without readers like you.
Our goal: Raise $150,000 by November 1 to sustain First Things in the year ahead.
Your gift anchors readers in the permanent things.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact Giovanni Del Piero, Director of the Editor’s Circle, at gdelpiero@firstthings.com or 212-627-1985.
