The demonstrations throughout New Mexico were held in conjunction with thousands of other protests all across the country urging the U.S. Senate to pass President Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” which has a provision in it to defund Planned Parenthood. According to Planned Parenthood, if this bill passes 200 of their locations face closure.

We urge all members of the US Senate to do the right thing here and vote to Defund Planned Parenthood,” stated Tara Shaver of Abortion Free New Mexico.

• Contact your US Senator HERE and urge them to Support President Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" which will Defund Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider.
