Editorial note
Organization type, state and parent organization are heuristics for filtering, not authoritative registrations. State Right-to-Life and Citizens-for-Life bodies are linked to the National Right to Life Committee by naming pattern — inferred, not verified. The rubric records distance from the standard published by Abolitionists Rising, not a moral verdict; every organization scored here regards itself as pro-life.
