Emergency in Texas!
WEEK OF DEFIANCE: Abortion on Demand and Without Apology!
August 25 – September 1
August 18, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
On September 1, the state of Texas is on track to close all but six abortion clinics (there were 46 in 2011). Women will be forced to have children against their will. Others will be driven to risk—or lose—their lives through dangerous illegal abortions.
This is a critical turning point in a nationwide emergency.
Now is the time for resistance, for refusing to back down in the face of injustice. Now is the time to defend women’s lives and women’s rights. Abortion on Demand and Without Apology!
