DALLAS – Abortion rights organizations in Dallas will hold a rally at Dallas City Hall to protest the Supreme Court decision for the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case that will be released in June.
Abortion rights advocates will rally on Wednesday, June 29 at 12 pm central time at Dallas City Hall. With a preview of what’s to come, we want to make sure that people know where and how to find their fellow pro-abortion community and join them in collective power.
Who: The Afiya Center, Jane's Due Process, Fund Texas Choice,
Texas Equal Access Fund, Avow, ACLU of Texas, Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas
What: Rally for Abortion Justice
Date: Wednesday, June 29
Time: 12 pm central time
Location: Dallas City Hall Plaza, 1500 Marilla St, Dallas, TX 75201
Background: On Monday, May 2 Politico published a leaked opinion draft by Justice Samuel Alito that shows the Court plans to overturn Roe v. Wade and nearly 50 years of precedent guaranteeing the right to abortion. Greg Abbott and the Texas Legislature already enacted a trigger law to prohibit abortion by making it a crime. These criminal penalties will be effective 30 days after a final Supreme Court opinion is released.
We know that attacks on abortion access disproportionately harm Black, Latinx, and Indigenous communities, the LGBTQ+ community, young people, those living in rural communities, people with disabilities, and people with low incomes. These are the same communities that will be most impacted by the overturning of Roe.
