Large Protest Forms Outside The Capitol To Protect Obamacare (Photos)
Planned Parenthood leads protest as Republicans prepare to vote to defund.
Just as Senate Republicans finally revealed their so-called skinny repeal bill Thursday night, a large crowd of protesters has gathered in front of the Capitol to rally to protect Obamacare.
The protesters took to the streets as part of a demonstration organized by Planned Parenthood many carrying signs and banners reading “Don’t take away our healthcare” and “I stand with Planned Parenthood.”
Here are photos and videos of the protest:
