Handmaids Protest Against Texas Abortion Law

Protesters dressed as handmaids and a guardian from The Handmaid's Tale walk down a sidewalk at the US Supreme Court during a demonstration against the Texas law prohibiting abortions after 6 weeks, a point at which many women do not know they are pregnant. Protesters also urge passage of the Women's Health Protection Act, which would codify Roe v. Wade and guarantee access to abortion nationwide. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
