CHICAGO—A picket line of 20 supporters of a woman’s right to choose an abortion confronted members of the Pro-Life Action League here June 10. A group of about 25 from the antiabortion group held giant photos of fetuses.

Many people stopped or gave a thumbs up to the pro-choice protest organized by the Illinois Choice Action Team, affiliated with the National Abortion Rights Action League. Participants chanted, “Her body, her choice.”

Rebecca Kupferberg, 22, said, “We need to be out here because 87 percent of U.S. counties don’t have an abortion provider.” Her sister Allison, added, “A threat to a woman’s right to choose is a threat to her liberation.”
