Butker said he did not intend to carry out another silent protest against the Biden administration’s pro-choice stance, but “a lot of thought” went into last year’s message.

“I thought, ‘Wow, this is an amazing place.’ Unfortunately, there are some laws that are being passed that I don’t think human life is valued and one of those laws is allowing abortion to be legal in this country,” Butker said Tuesday.

“So to have a tie that, in Latin, I thought, would draw attention to the unborn child, because I’m trying to learn more Latin, by going to Latin mass, I chose” Vulnerari Praesidio,” which aims to protect the most vulnerable,” Butker added. .

“Unborn children are, for me, the greatest victims of our society. They don’t have voices, they don’t necessarily look like humans, they’re not very big, they can’t fight for themselves,” Butker continued.

Butker and his wife, Isabelle Butker, have been open about the fact that the couple had three miscarriages together, but continued to try for more children.

“There’s not a lot of people fighting for them and I just think it’s a great atrocity that’s happening in this country with the charade of the unborn,” Butker added.

“And I felt there was no better place to send this message to the masses and represent the unborn in a place like the White House, where unfortunately their voices are not heard,” concluded Butker.

Harrison and Isabelle married in 2018 and have two children.
