   Local news - This Wednesday, June 29, a rally was held in Angers on the Place

du Ralliement for the right to abortion and in solidarity with women living in
the United States who see themselves or will soon be deprived of this fundamental
right to dispose of her body and freely choose her pregnancy. We were around 300
people who responded to the call from Family Planning 49, joined by other
feminist, trade union and political organisations. ---- Half a dozen far-right
anti-abortion activists tried to unfurl a banner near the rally but were quickly
driven out of the square under pressure from demonstrators. ---- In France, the
right to abortion must be enshrined in the constitution. But that's not all,
access to abortion must be materially made possible throughout the country. For
this, the duration of the period for recourse to abortion must be extended, the
conscience clause must be abolished, which allows doctors to refuse to perform
abortions, and resources must be provided in health establishments practicing
abortion while more than 130 have closed in the last 10 years. And that the
government is not ready to let go so easily, preferring to fatten the employers
it serves rather than giving the means to ensure that women's rights are respected.

Faced with the attacks of the reactionaries and the bourgeoisie in many countries
of the world, international feminist solidarity is also essential. It must be
brought to life as during the gathering this Wednesday.

This sad episode of regression unfolding in the United States reminds us that our
rights are never acquired and that the balance of power always ends up being
reversed when we lower our vigilance and stop mobilizing. So right now, let's
build the feminist counterattack! Let us organize ourselves and invest ourselves
in feminist associations and collectives, in trade unions and their women's
commissions. Let's build mass feminist organizations and mass mobilizations that
alone will allow us to establish the balance of power necessary to defend our
rights, to win new ones. And let's not stop until we have pushed the advantage to
the limit and until we have got rid of this patriarchal and capitalist society!
