Thousands expected to attend pro-abortion rights protests across U.S.

Thousands of demonstrators are expected to march in cities throughout the nation on Saturday in support of abortion rights. The rallies are part of a nationwide campaign in response to a leaked majority draft opinion by the Supreme Court that could overturn Roe v. Wade. 

In Washington, D.C., organizers of the "Bans Off Our Bodies" rally are expecting as many as 17,000 people to march from the Washington Monument to the Supreme Court on Saturday. Members of Congress, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren, will attend "to call for increased access to abortion and a rejection of the overturn of Roe v. Wade."

On Friday, House Democrats gathered on the steps of the U.S. Capitol to voice their support for abortion rights.
