National Rallies For Abortion Rights Held Across The U.S.

WASHINGTON, DC - MAY 14: An abortion-rights activist holds a sign that reads, "Abortion=Health Care" as protesters march during the "Bans Off Our Bodies" Rally with a view of the Capital Building in the background on May 14, 2022 in Washington, DC. Recently, a leaked draft decision from the US Supreme Court suggested that a majority of justices were planning to overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision in which the Court ruled that the Constitution of the United States protects a pregnant woman's liberty to choose to have an abortion without excessive government restriction. This move would deny access to abortion in roughly half the country and criminalize the practice in several states. (Footage by Alexi Rosenfeld/Getty Images)
