A group of local elected officials, social services organizations, and reproductive rights advocacy groups gathered on the steps of Queens Borough Hall in Kew Gardens on Thursday, Oct. 24, to rally in favor of Proposition 1, which is on the ballot this November.
Speakers and supporters included Sen. John Liu (D-16), Assembly Members Catalina Cruz (D-39) and Jessica González-Rojas (D-34), Queens Borough President Donovan Richards Jr. and Deputy Queens Borough President Ebony Young. Organizers gathered behind the elected officials, waving flags and holding up placards that said “Protect Safe, Legal Abortion” and “ Vote Yes on Prop 1.”
