Rallies got underway Tuesday across the nation and right here in Southwest Florida for abortion rights and women’s rights.

This comes after a leaked Supreme Court draft opinion to overturn Roe v Wade.

The reaction has been pouring in.

President Joe Biden said, “So it goes far beyond, in my view, if it becomes a law and if what is written is what remains, it goes far beyond the concern of whether or not there is the right to choose. It goes to other basic rights. The right to marry. The right to determine a whole range of things.”

If Roe v Wade is overturned, this would mean abortion would be decided on a state-by-state basis.
