Abortion rights activists in Los Angeles and Riverside are being politically persecuted and prosecuted for leading people to take to the streets in days following the overturning of Roe V. Wade.
On July 30, 13 protesters rallied in front of the Riverside CA Historic Courthouse, where messages were displayed in chalk and washable kid’s paint. They were detained with no explanation then arrested. The now #Riverside6 (formally Riverside 8) are facing felony charges of vandalism which could mean a maximum penalty of imprisonment for up to 3 years and fine up to $10,000.
The signers of this petition demand that the Riverside City Attorney, Mike Hestrin, hault this political persecution by DROPPING ALL CHARGES against the 6 abortion rights activists - Riverside 6.
On July 6, 4 courageous women chained themselves to the steps of City Hall and did a act of civil disobedience calling out the overturning of Roe as Illegitimate. They were charged with Riot or “failure to disperse.” At least one person is being arraigned on Tuesday May 9th.
The signers of this petition demand that the LA City Attorney, Hydee Soto, hault this political persecution by DROPPING ALL CHARGES against the 4 abortion rights activists- City Hall 4.
