Rally to Defend Abortion: In Boston & Across MA

Today, just days before the U.S. Supreme Court begins a new session that will include a direct challenge to Roe v. Wade, organizations dedicated to reproductive health, rights, and justice are joining together to demonstrate clearly and unequivocally that we will not allow abortion to be outlawed — and that we are ready to fight to protect, defend, and expand access to abortion for everyone, no matter what.

The biggest rally today will be the one in Boston at 12:00 PM in Franklin Park. RSVP: bit.ly/bostonrallytodefendabortion.

But there are also rallies and standouts in every corner of the Commonwealth. Find the closest one to you here.

In solidarity,

Meg Wheeler
