In Mountain View on Friday more than a dozen political and community leaders united in sounding a clarion call to action.
"For the very first time in the history of our country, the Supreme Court is poised to take a right away," said Rep. Anna Eshoo. Added Mountain View councilmember Margaret Abe-Koga, "This is an assault on women’s rights."
"And if you think that the states are going to be able to protect women, think again. Because if the Republicans take control of the House and Senate, they will pass a law outlawing abortion in every state," said an angry Rep. Zoe Lofgren. Added California Attorney General Rob Bonta from Los Angeles, "Women will be hurt. Women’s health will be undermined. People’s lives could be lost.
"It is appalling to think that my two teenage daughters may be denied the same rights and freedoms women have rightfully had for 50 years," said Abe-Koga. "Even prior to this announcement on Monday, they started to see an increase in the number of patient care," said Cindy Chavez, who sits on the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors. Added Planned Parenthood vice president Lauren Babb, "Folks are coming here because they know that they can get the care that they need. And we will not back down."
