Rally for Justice for Jane

Just two weeks ago, abortion storytellers participating in the 1 in 3 Speakout stood on the steps of HHS, told their abortion stories, and demanded the firing of Scott Lloyd, the Trump Administration official who is blocking abortion access for undocumented minors.  On March 15 at 12pm, advocates for abortion access and reproductive justice will again gather at HHS and deliver a petition for Lloyd’s firing signed by over 250,000 people.  We have not forgotten Jane or any of the young women being denied access – and we’ll keep fighting for #JusticeforJane.

“The fight for reproductive health, rights and justice is intertwined with the fight for safety and freedom for marginalized communities,” said Debra Hauser, president of Advocates for Youth, parent organization of the 1 in 3 Campaign. “While the Trump Administration and this Congress brazenly abuse their power, young people are stepping up and leading a movement—and they’re bringing everyone forward in the fight to control their own bodies and health.”
