Buenos Aires, February 21 (RHC)-- In Argentina, thousands of reproductive rights activists held protests in dozens of cities Wednesday to renew their push to legalize abortion.  

Public support in Argentina for abortion rights has grown since 2018, when a bill to repeal an abortion ban narrowly lost in the Argentinean Senate.

Pamela Martin, an organizer of the protests in Buenos Aires, told reporters: “Today is a day of action for safe, legal and free abortion.  This is our third protest.   This is a day for political influence, a day in which we ask ourselves to continue calling for, to demand and to struggle for our right to decide.”
