Banning abortion is violence against women
From the article:
Hundreds of thousands of women took to the streets in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on June 4 to demand an end to violence against women, and for the Congress to vote in favor of legal, safe and free abortion when it debates the question starting on June 13.
The movement is called Ni Una Menos, which can be translated different ways, but the basic meaning is Not One More Murdered Woman. It began as a protest against rampant femicide in Argentina. Although abortion is illegal, estimates put the number of abortions conducted in secrecy each year between 370,000 and 520,000. As a consequence, approximately 49,000 women end up in the hospital each year in Argentina owing to medical complications from back-alley abortions.

As more US states attempt to eliminate the Constitutional right to choose, this struggle in Argentina is being replicated in the US.
