Chicago For Abortion Rights March 21st Springfield Protest vs Anti-Abortionists
This year, the “March for Life” has abandoned Chicago, in favor of marching in Springfield. But Chicago isn’t ceding any part of Illinois! Join Chicago For Abortion Rights (CFAR) as we mount a counter protest to the “March for Life” rally in Springfield, IL, Tuesday, March 21st.
We plan to once again outnumber, and overwhelm, the anti-abortion bigots, no matter where they assemble. We are planning to take an Amtrak train as a group, scheduled to depart from Union Station at 7:15 AM and arrive in Springfield at 10:20 AM.
The return train will head back to Chicago at 4:15 PM, arriving at Union Station at 8:25 PM barring delays. Right now, we are anticipating tickets to cost ~$20 each way (around $40 per person). We ask that folks donate what you can to help offset costs of travel and sack lunch supplies, but we do not want income to be a barrier to anyone’s participation in this event!
See you in Springfield, however you get there !
