Description

A non-partisan grassroots rally on the South Steps of the TX Capitol celebrating the anniversary of the historic Roe V Wade supreme court decision that guaranteed a woman's right to privacy in her decision to seek an abortion. Come enjoy some amazing speakers and musicians as we celebrate together in the wake of the recent supreme court victory against the unconstitutional TX HB2 and connect in the face of the oncoming attacks against reproductive freedoms.

FAQs

Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?

This event is open to all ages! However, due to the fact that this is a reproductive justice event parents should be aware that there will potentially be detailed discussion of various reproductive justice topics including abortion access, birth control, rape, domestic violence, survivor issues, and racism. Please exercise your best judgement about your children's maturity and sensitivity in your decision whether or not to bring your them, but they are welcome as long as they are supervised by an adult. There will be an area at the rally just for kids with a few fun activities.


What are my transportation/parking options for getting to and from the event?

Capitol Metro's Trip Planner can be accessed here: https://www.capmetro.org/planner/

Most street parking meters around the event should be free since it's Sunday, but these spaces are first come first serve. There is also ample parking in the State Capitol Visitor parking garage which is also free on Sunday. This is the link to the Capitol Parking Garage page: http://www.tspb.state.tx.us/plan/parking/Parking.html


What can I bring into the event?

We highly encourage rallygoers to bring a reuseable water bottle to fill at the many water fountains inside the Capital building. You may also bring your own chair if you would like a place to sit.

Signs and banners are encouraged, however State Preservation Board rules prohibit any handles or sticks for safety reasons. No signs can be affixed to capitol property including railings, benches, or trees so be prepared to hold your sign or lay it on the ground.
