Madison, March 2, 2019: Save Abortion Together: A Rally for Choice

Save Abortion Together: A Rally for Choice

Join Madison Abortion Defense for a pro-choice rally at the Capitol on March 2nd. The anti-choice group 40 Days for Life’s Madison chapter, Vigil for Life, is gearing up for their next campaign to start on March 6th. For 40 days, anti-choicers will descend on our abortion clinics to disseminate lies, harass our patients, and shutter the doors of our clinics forever.

Madison Abortion Defense formed in October 2018 to defend the local clinic from these anti-choice protesters. We believe that the pro-choice majority needs to fight on multiple fronts–legislation, fundraising, clinic defense–to build a movement to make abortion accessible for all.

Let’s unite the pro-choice majority in Madison to collaborate in building this movement!

When? Saturday, March 2nd, time TBD
Where? The Capitol, Forward Statue side
How can my organization get involved? Sponsor the rally, publicize it in your networks, bring your organization’s materials, and speak from the front about the work you do for the right to choose!
Join our meetings! Every Sunday, 3pm at the Central Library.
