Abortion rights protests happened in Chicago following the U.S. Supreme Court ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade.
A Chicago abortion rights protest in Federal Plaza and another supporting Roe v. Wade in Naperville drew thousands of people."We've been out here marching ever since that leak. It's just really sad that they are not listening to over 60% of America who supports this," said Patty, who participated in the rally.
"Rain or shine! It doesn't matter! We have to be out here. If you're not angry, you're part of the problem, 100%. If you are not out here saying something, screaming, you are causing the problem and you are letting the problem happen," added Sarah Soliz, an abortion rights advocate. The rally comes a day after abortion rights opponents gathered in Federal Plaza to celebrate the overturning of Roe v Wade.Search histories, location data, texts: How personal data could help enforce anti-abortion laws
Many of them condemned state and local leaders for considering Illinois a safe haven for people seeking abortions. While the rally is underway, people from both sides of the issue are expected to gather at Federal Plaza on July 9 for their respective rallies.
