In light of the Supreme Court draft opinion leak, a pro-choice protest happened outside of the new federal courthouse. Protesters demanded abortion rights remain intact for women.
”You can both have a family with young children, and choose to have children and be for abortion choice,” said Sarah and Evan Johnson, pro-choice protesters.
The couple brought their two daughters with them to the protest. They’re too young to understand what’s happening now, but their parents say they know it will impact their lives. “Women should have the right to choose when and how and under what circumstances they want to have families, and abortion is an absolute vital part of that,” Sarah Johnson said.
Dyana Limon-Mercado, executive director of Planned Parenthood Texas Votes, called the draft opinion an attack on women. “We are at a crisis moment for abortion access in our country. The right to abortion is being crushed and has been for some time in Texas,” Limon-Mercado said.Abortion will be banned in Texas if the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade.
