The War on Our Rights: A National Women’s Day Rally

Our fundamental freedoms are under attack—relentlessly, aggressively, and with terrifying speed. The forces behind these attacks want to control our bodies, erase our identities, and silence our voices.

Abortion bans are stripping away our bodily autonomy. Gender-affirming care is being outlawed. DEI programs are being dismantled. Undocumented immigrants are facing brutal crackdowns and dehumanization. This is not just policy—it is oppression. And it will not stop unless we stop it.

We cannot allow those in power to roll back decades of progress. We will not stand by as our rights are stripped away, piece by piece. We will fight for reproductive freedom, for LGBTQ+ lives, for racial justice, and for the dignity of every person, no matter their immigration status.

Show up. Speak out. Stand together. Because silence is complicity, and we refuse to be silent.
