Washington on Friday for the 53rd annual March for Life. Carrying both handmade and printed out signs and chanting as they walked from the National Mall to the Supreme Court, attendees traveled from across the country to advocate for restrictions on abortion access.

The march came nearly three years after the Supreme Court handed down its decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which shifted abortion policy to the states and overturned Roe v. Wade. Before demonstrators began their march, speakers emphasized their continued opposition to abortion access nationwide, including concerns about the abortion pill, women crossing state lines to receive abortions and what they deemed to be federal overreach.

Tens of thousands of protesters marched past the U.S. Capitol on their way to the Supreme Court on Friday.

She said she wishes President Donald Trump’s administration passed stricter laws on abortion. “Trump is not pro-life. He’s never been pro-life. He made a business deal with the pro-life movement for power and money,” she said. (Ben Shapiro/MNS)Marchers, by the thousands, filled the street on Friday.
