LIVE: Pro-choice and pro-life protesters face off in DC outside the United States Supreme Court

Ruptly is live from Washington DC on Wednesday, December 1, as pro-life and pro-choice protesters are set to rally outside the United States Supreme Court. The protests take place as the Supreme Court is set to hear arguments about a challenge to a Mississippi law that bans abortions at 15 weeks of pregnancy. Last month, both sides held protests in DC, sparked by a restrictive Texas abortion law signed by Texas Governor Greg Abbott, which banned the procedure as early as six weeks into pregnancy and encouraged citizens to prosecute people who violated the ban. The Supreme Court has voted against blocking enforcement of the law ’pending oral arguments.’​​
