The actions in Durham come as the Supreme Court is set to begin oral arguments on October 4th in a case that will determine the future of abortion rights for all Americans.
More than 110+ organizations have joined forces to take part in the #RallyforAbortionJustice, organized by Women’s March, to show that Americans’ overwhelmingly support Roe v. Wade and that this is nothing more than another unacceptable Right Wing power grab to control the bodies, futures, and lives of pregnant and birthing people.
To promote safety given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, all actions will take place outdoors, have a physical distancing plan, and attendees will be asked to wear masks.
