In Madison, Wisconsin, the anniversary gathered hundreds from across the country, including Chicago, as protesters descended on the state capital.

They were a small but determined force. Dozens of protesters gathered at the corner of 103rd and Western Avenue in Beverly Sunday to rally for abortion rights.

"I wasn't surprised this happened. I've been fighting for women's rights since I was 18 and I'm 53," said Whitney Bradshaw, an abortion-rights demonstrator. Wisconsin is one of 13 states where abortions have been banned since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last summer. Eight other states, including Indiana, have passed bans that are now being challenged in court.
