Several hundred people packed Lancaster’s old courthouse steps and spilled onto and across East King Street to demand President Joe Biden and Democrats in Congress protect a woman’s right to abortion.
“We will settle for nothing less than abortion on demand without apology,” event host Savannah Thorpe said Wednesday evening.
Thorpe kicked off the half-hour rally by leading the crowd in a cathartic yell intended to alleviate anger and frustration since Monday’s leak of a draft U.S. Supreme Court opinion suggesting the court could soon overturn Roe v. Wade.
