Planned Parenthood protests abortion bills at Michigan Capitol

Planned Parenthood protests abortion bills at Michigan Capitol | MLive.com: In a Michigan Legislature where nearly two-thirds of the lawmakers are endorsed by Right to Life, opponents of a sweeping package of bills aimed at restricting and regulating abortions worked to make their presence known Tuesday. The recently introduced bills are expected to be voted on this week, but they were not voted on Tuesday.

Demonstrators connected with Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan and other groups rallied at the Capitol and some of them ringed the building’s rotunda. The pink-attired crowd clapped and shouted “this is our house” while waiting for House lawmakers to settle in for an afternoon session. At least twice, demonstrators were removed from the House balcony after shouting about provisions in the bill down toward the House floor.
