The reason for this is that it recognized the media house Politico this week a note was leaked which allegedly shows that the conservative majority in the Supreme Court has decided that the right to self-determined abortion should removed.
If the amendment passes, it will be up to each state to decide on abortion legislation, and thus abortion may become illegal in half of the United States.
– Because we are in DC, I could not let the chance to tell how crushed I am over the Supreme Court’s potential decision go from me. Our bodies should never be in the hands of politicians, she said from the stage and continued:
– I hope we can use our voices to protect our right to have a safe abortion, which is a right many before us have worked so hard to get. It is so important, she continued.
