Women’s Rights Groups Sound the Alarm To Ensure Reproductive Freedom Will Not Be Lost
Michigan’s Top Pro-Choice Advocacy Groups Launch A New Initiative To Save Women’s Lives WHAT:There will be an historic national march on Washington DC to speak out for a woman's right to choose. MARAL Pro-Choice Michigan, in partnership with our allies, is leading the March for Freedom of Choice for Michigan women. WHO: National Organizations NARAL Pro-Choice America Feminist Majority National Organization for Women Planned Parenthood Federation of America Michigan Organizations MARAL Pro-Choice Michigan RCRC, the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, Michigan Chapter National Council of Jewish Women, Michigan Chapter WHERE: Washington, DC. WHEN: Sunday, April 25, 2004 WHY: The White House and the majority of the US Senate and House are aligned in anti-choice lockstep. The federal judiciary is being packed with judges who are hostile to women’s rights. The Michigan Legislature is chipping away at a woman’s right to a safe and legal abortion. The U.S. Supreme Court hangs in the balance as rumors of impending resignations persist. Despite all this, poll after poll indicates that the majority of Americans are pro-choice. Rebekah Warren, Executive Director of MARAL Pro-Choice Michigan stated, “This event will send a strong, clear message: Women WILL fight for their right to choose safe, legal abortion and birth control, and women’s right to self-determination.” Please visit our website for more information and updates on the March.
