Abortion rights activists have marched on Jan. 22 each year since 1973, when the Supreme Court decision first granted federal protections for abortion rights. But Sunday, activists are also mourning the ruling after it was overturned last year.

Smaller demonstration begins in nation's capital

The marchers got underway a few minutes early, making their way through an otherwise mostly empty downtown Washington chanting “our bodies, our choice” and “our rights are not up for debate” as they went. Those chants continued as the group stopped on Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House. “Roe has been around almost my entire life,” said Lynn Hacker, a 50-year-old Maryland resident who was attending the event with her 15-year-old daughter. “I never had to think about reproductive rights, but she will.”

How dare they kill babies under the guise of reproductive rights. Good riddance to Roe.

Why won't the pro-abortion media show pictures of the unborn babies? Why doesn't the media show what's thrown in the trash can, so America can see what they're celebrating today?

Made all the more tragic because that verdict was bought and paid for.

Nothing changed. Abortion still legal. You are misinformation.

It’s still legal to kill you baby in utero in all 50 states.
