CHICAGO — Thousands of protesters flocked to Daley Plaza in downtown Chicago Saturday in support of abortion rights.“Abortion is healthcare. We need to be able to make our own choices and have the freedom to do that safely,“ said rally attendee Jillian Schranz.“It’s her body. Nobody else needs to make decisions about a woman’s body except herself,“ added fellow attendee Marian DiMarco. Chicago’s Defend Abortion Access rally and march may be one of the larger reproductive rights events held Saturday, here and across the nation. Ponchita Moore came with her 11-year-old grandson Christian.“He’s going to grow up. He’s going to be a young man and it’s important to understand that everyone has rights,“ she said.
