Planned Parenthood Advocates of Oregon: Bans Off Our Bodies Planned Parenthood Advocates of Oregon: Bans Off Our Bodies
–
May 14, 2022The time and location of this event is subject to change. You will receive more event details (Date/time, program, march routes, etc) as we get closer to the event date.
On Monday, May 2nd, Politico published a leaked draft Supreme Court majority opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that explicitly overturns Roe v. Wade. This is an unprecedented leak from the court that, if true, would reverse nearly 50 years of precedent and explicitly end federal constitutional protections for abortion. 26 states could move quickly to ban abortion, meaning millions of people might live without local access to abortion. The people in your community and across the country deserve the power and freedom to make their own personal reproductive health care decisions.
Planned Parenthood Advocates of Oregon invites you to join these efforts during this moment of crisis. It is necessary to act now, all across the country, not only to demonstrate that people support abortion access, but to show that we won’t back down.
