Rallying Point: gather at 11:00 am at St. Paul College; march to the Capitol at noon
The Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade, and safe and legal abortion care for millions across the country is gone. It’s time to get loud and take action!
Abortion is still legal in Minnesota – but with limited clinic coverage, laws restricting access to abortion and high costs, it is already out of reach for so many. Our state can do better, and we need to do better now. Increasing access to abortion care is critical for our communities and those who are looking to Minnesota now for care.
We are ready to make this happen. Join us to demand that Minnesota be a leader in securing reproductive freedom for all! Join UnRestrict Minnesota and partners for a day of action on Sunday, July 17 starting at 11:00 am in St. Paul.
Our Future: March for Abortion Access is an action for everyone to show our leaders and our country what Minnesotans really stand for in this historic moment. Join us!
