Bio

Hi! I'm Riley! An unapologetically Christian, advocate for the unborn. Since I was 16 and learned what abortion is, I have wanted to do everything in my power end the genocide. This requires empathy and kindness for the mothers and fathers involved. It is difficult to go against the stream of culture, but it is so rewarding. https://www.linkedin.com/in/riley-lang-554754254/details/experience/

When I was 16, a friend from church posted videos from Live Action discussing what abortion is. From that moment I was never changed. For some reason, the Lord put a calling on my life to defend the unborn, the greatest travesty of human justice in our century and the previous century. A few years later, I realized that both my grandmothers had unplanned pregnancies, one right before Roe V. Wade was added to the ash heap of history, and one after. The first chose life because abortion was illegal, which is why I have my amazing aunt today, and the other was forced into an abortion. I saw the dichotomy of their two stories and saw how women have been lied to. I fervently shared my pro-life convictions everywhere I could, leading many of my friends to cuss me out, ostracize me, and "cancel" me. Two years after that experience, a random girl from high school called me and shared that she chose life because I posted Live Action's pro-life videos. All those arguments, getting my name dragged through the mud, and awful experiences were worth it, because God uses everything! A life was saved in such an unexpected way. For the past four years, I have done nothing except defend the unborn. This is a simplified list of previous work and volunteer experience: *Currently: Georgia Life Alliance Social Media Creator (Public Policy) *Currently: Family Research Council Summer 2023 Intern -A public policy organization and news sources for defending faith, family, and freedom -I assist in securing donations, events planning, and additional roles, such as writing pages in their upcoming children's devotional book about the transgender ideology and pro-life discussions *Young Women for America Chapter at Kennesaw State University: -President & Founder of the only active pro-life club at KSU -Through this club, I was able to reserve spots for two local pregnancy center mobile units to be on campus twice a week! (Which has saved lives on campus!) -Marketing for the pregnancy resource center on campus through access to student email lists, flyers, social media, and other campus infrastructure -Sidewalk Counseling on campus to refer students to local pregnancy resource centers -Pro-life tabling & good debates with pro-choice students -Planned fundraising & speaker events (Ex: "Testimonies of Abortion," post-abortive women telling their stories, how they found healing after abortion, & watched the "Unplanned" movie) -Pro-life training for the students involved in my chapter & prepare students to engage in pro-life discussions on campus *Concerned Women for America -Lobbied in person for the "Stand with Moms Act" -Called my Congressmen & Senators for pro-life legislation -Attended many political rallies (Ex: Drove from Atlanta to DC in December of 2021 for the oral hearings of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization) *40 Days for Life Participate -Attend monthly pro-life, political meetings -Sidewalk counsel when available -Previous speaker at the December meeting *Campaign Assistant and Fundraiser for local, pro-life House of Representatives candidate *Intern to Creative Director at Bartow Family Resource Center (Pregnancy Resource Center) *Babysitting for special needs children (because to be pro-life means we are pro-life for the entire life) My life mission is to create a culture of life, where abortion is not just illegal, but unthinkable. Thank you for your dedication for life!
