Protect Roe and Show Up for Abortion Rights! When: Tuesday, May 3 at 5pm, local time Where: Federal Courthouses, Federal buildings, Town Halls, and Town Squares near you |
John — this is dire news.
A leaked draft opinion from Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito reveals that the Supreme Court has voted to strike down Roe v. Wade.
If you’re like me, then you’re horrified, saddened, and livid hearing this news. Now is the time to show up and show that our movement will not back down from protecting our reproductive rights and access to safe, legal abortion anytime soon.
That is why Women’s March is asking our supporters to show up for abortion rights today, Tuesday, May 3 at 5pm local time at your community courthouse, federal building, or town square to say bans off our bodies, and demand elected officials take action before the right-wing justices on the Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade.
Bring your families, your signs, your stories, your heart, and your commitment to save Roe and access to safe and legal abortion for all who need it.
We'll show up today — and keep showing up with larger and larger actions in the days, weeks, and months to come.
The overturning of Roe v. Wade would immediately outright ban abortion in 26 states. Let’s be clear: Abortion is health care, and should be safe, legal, and accessible for all. Abortion bans are especially dangerous for low-income folks, Black women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and working families — many of whom are struggling and living paycheck to paycheck.
Our movement is stronger than this moment, John. We will make it through.
Together,
Rachel Carmona
Executive Director, Women’s March
