Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : An opponent of women's access to abortion called this year's march theme "macabre."
46% : They waved signs that said "Mind your own uterus," "I love someone who had an abortion" and "Abortion is a personal choice, not a legal debate," among other messages.
40% : Alexis McGill Johnson, the president of Planned Parenthood nationally, told of women forced to drive many hours across state lines -- sometimes multiple state lines -- to end pregnancies in the weeks since the Texas law went into effect.
40% : With the sun beating down Saturday, Ramsay Teviotdale of Arlington, Virginia -- who when asked her age said she was "old enough to remember when abortion wasn't legal" -- was one of the few wearing the hand-knitted pink wool caps that distinguished the 2017 Women's March.
32% : The first Women's March of the Biden administration headed straight for the steps of the Supreme Court on Saturday, part of nationwide protests that drew thousands to Washington and other cities to demand continued access to abortion in a year when conservative lawmakers and judges have put it in jeopardy.
