Two men heckle protesters during the “Fascist Judges: Keep Your Hands Off Abortion Medication” nationwide protest on Saturday, April 15, 2023, in Downtown Chicago. A federal appeals court ruled prohibited mailing the widely-used abortion medication and limited the drug’s use to only the first seven weeks of pregnancy Wednesday, despite the two-drug regimen’s approval for use through the 10th week of pregnancy.
“It’s certainly not about letting each state decide,” Becker told the crowd. “Revoking approval of mifepristone would be a major step toward banning abortion nationwide.” Mother-and-daughter duo Catherine Sullivan, 54, and Audra Lee Dobiesz, 17, of Pilsen marched beside one another as the crowd moved to a packed Millennium Park, where hundreds of people visiting “The Bean” sculpture turned away from their reflections as the loud protest group arrived.
