Protesters begin amassing in NYC's Washington Square Park to protest SCOTUS Roe v. Wade decision
The Court's decision, released Friday, although leaked a month prior, overturned a prior decision that federalized abortion access and sent the issue back to individual state legislatures.

Just before 6 p.m. Friday evening, a handful of protesters gathered in New York City's Washington Square Park to chant slogans, though it seems unlikely that New York's Democrat-controlled state legislature would make any moves to restrict abortion access.

Activists set up tables to give out emergency contraception, masks and COVID rapid tests in the park ahead of the night's larger planned protest.
