The March For Women’s Lives

April 15th March For Women’s Lives

The time is right for a public demonstration of historic size in support of reproductive freedom and justice for all women. Threats to these rights have never been so systematic and coordinated, and the lives and health of women have never faced such peril. On April 25th, in our Nation’s Capitol we march to uphold – Choice, Justice, Access, Health, Abortion, Global and Family Planning.

For the first time ever this pro-choice march is a collaborative effort – seven leading national women’s rights groups have come together to organize this momentous event. The American Civil Liberties Union, Black Women’s Health Imperative, Feminist Majority, NARAL Pro-Choice America, National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, National Organization for Women and Planned Parenthood Federation of America are the principal organizers of the March for Women’s Lives and have pooled efforts and resources to lay the groundwork. Other progressive organizations have signed on as co-sponsors – offering everything from member participation to help spreading the word and help defraying costs.

I’m not going, but it’s shaping up to be a very large shindig.
