Thousands of protesters marched at rallies in Washington and cities across the country Saturday, decrying Texass recent ban on most abortions and warning that the U.S. Supreme Courts conservative majority could impose further restrictions in the coming months.
Amassing in downtown D.C. before walking in a clamorous procession to the Supreme Court, a roster of speakers bemoaned a looming threat to Roe v. Wade and implored Americans to enlist in a nationwide campaign to preserve abortion rights.
No matter where you live, no matter where you are, this moment is dark it is dark but thats why were here, Alexis McGill Johnson, president of Planned Parenthood, told the crowd at the Rally for Abortion Justice.
It is our job to imagine the light, even when we cant see it, Johnson said. It is our job to turn pain into purpose. It is our job to turn pain into power.
