Abortion-rights advocates rallied in Philly over anticipation of Roe v. Wade being reversed

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : The Center City rally was one of more than 380 "Bans Off Our Bodies" demonstrations nationwide sponsored by the Women's March, Planned Parenthood, and other groups.
51% : The crowd rallied to call for the Supreme Court to uphold Roe v. Wade, for Medicare for all that includes reproductive health benefits, and for legislation protecting abortion at the federal level.
46% : Speakers told the crowd to donate to funds that help people access abortions, speak out in support of abortion rights, fight state legislation that would take away rights and funding for abortion, and recruit more people to the cause.
44% : Polls show that most Americans want to preserve access to abortion -- at least in the earlier stages of pregnancy -- but the Supreme Court appeared to be poised to let the states have the final say.
43% : The right to abortion was won through mass pressure from citizens decades ago, and abortion-rights advocates hope similar pressure can protect the constitutional right as the U.S. Supreme Court considers its fate.
43% : If the court overturns Roe v. Wade, which has protected abortion rights for nearly 50 years, roughly half of states, mostly in the South and Midwest, are expected to quickly ban abortion.
42% : Many hundreds of people rallied at City Hall in support of abortion access Saturday, nearly two weeks after the leak of a Supreme Court draft ruling that would overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision and throw out the right to abortion.
41% : Abortion is a human right!"
40% : Signs declared "protecting abortion requires more than voting" and "we will not go back" to a time before legal and safe abortions.
