A few hundred are out today at SLC’s Washington Square Park in response to SCOTUS’ decision to overturn Roe v. Wade #utpol

Utah is one of a handful of states with a “trigger” ban that takes effect after an official certifies that all or part of the landmark decision has been overturned #utleg

“We won’t go back; we’ll fight back!” a speaker with @pslsaltlake said

As the final speaker wrapped up, news broke that Utah’s trigger law had gone into effect #utpol

Crowd has mobilized, heading toward the Capitol, where it’ll converge with @ppacutah’s rally

Chants of “Whose streets? Our streets” and “2, 4, 6, 8 f-ck the church and f-ck the state” fill the air, as the group makes its way past the SLC temple

Outside the state Capitol, the crowd for today’s reproductive rights rally is in the thousands #utpol #utleg #roevswade

A few more scenes from the Utah Capitol, as residents from Salt Lake City — and beyond — showed up in the wake of the Supreme Court’s overturning Roe v. Wade #utpol

As the Capitol rally wound down, organizers took it to the street once more, and marched back toward the City and County Bldg.
