A Week in Review, Jan 20, 2017

Submitted by JAC on Fri, 01/20/2017 - 12:00am

The week began with honoring Martin Luther King, Jr., who committed his life to fighting for civli rights and justice. It ended with the inauguration of President Donald Trump and increased fears about the future of those same rights.Trump will fulfill his campaign promise to defund Planned Parenthood and appoint Supreme Court justices who will overturn Roe v Wade. It is now time to turn that fear to action. We lost the election, but not the fight.
