Orlando joins other cities in holding a march to commemorate ‘Roe v. Wade’
It’s been nearly 50 years since the Supreme Court’s landmark Roe v. Wade decision, guaranteeing the constitutional right to abortion in the United States … and seven months since the Supreme Court’s conservative majority struck that down.
Since then, the abortion care landscape in the U.S. has changed dramatically. And that came after Florida’s GOP-controlled legislature approved a 15-week abortion ban — a decision that has (and will continue to have) major implications for abortion care in the South.
To mark the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, Orlando abortion-rights advocates will join a National March for Abortion on Sunday. This will be an “expert-led rally followed by a march for our rights,” per Florida Rep. Anna Eskamani’s Mobilize RSVP page.
Noon, Sunday, Jan. 22, Orlando City Hall, 400 S. Orange Ave., mobilize.us, free.
