I am so thankful for this virtual march! This is the time for all of us to come together and show that we will be heard, we will be seen, we will stand up for the rights for ourselves, our mothers, our daughters, our family, friends and future generations. We will not sit back silently…

I’m autistic, I have anxiety, selective mutism, and auditory processing disorder so it’s very hard for me to be in large groups of people, otherwise I would’ve gone. I still wish I could go.

I am joining the march because it matters. I receive Social Security and Medicare and am pretty much uninsurable due to pre-existing conditions. My daughter is thirteen and has many years ahead of her when reproductive issues will matter hugely and personally. Many of my friends also have disabilities and/or are not neurotypical, and quite…

I can’t march because I’m recovering from a hysterectomy (due to breast cancer) But I wish I could donate my uterus to some male politicians because if they had one, I think health care options in this country would skyrocket!!! #LoveTrumpsHate #MyBodyMyChoice #HealthcareForAll
