The annual Women’s March “Bigger Than Roe” Rally drew over 100 to downtown Mount Prospect during a steady snowfall Sunday afternoon, Jan. 22. The gathering was held on the 50th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on Roe vs. Wade, which federally-protected a woman’s right to abortion. Those protections were overturned last June. Protestors holding signs dotted each corner of the intersection of Elmhurst Road (Route 83) and Northwest Highway (U.S. Route 14) during Sunday’s event.
