Thousands Attend Women’s March Rally For Abortion Justice In Washington, DC
Participants in the Women's March for Abortion Justice wave signs at and respond to pro-life counterprotesters while passing the US Supreme Court in Washington, DC. Protesters demand the US government protect women's reproductive rights and access to abortion nationwide. Specifically, they are calling on Congress to pass the Women's Health Protection Act (WHPA) and EACH Act, which guarantee abortion access and require it to be covered by insurance. More than 600 satellite protests are happening nationwide on October 2. The events are partly in response to restrictive anti-abortion laws recently passed in Texas and Mississippi, and the Supreme Court's refusal to strike down the Texas law.
