A “We Won’t Go Back” Rally and Voter Registration Action will be held Saturday, October 1 from 10 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. at Plaza Ferdinand, located on Palafox Street between Government and Zaragoza Streets in downtown Pensacola. The purpose of the event is to express collective outrage at the assault on reproductive rights and bodily autonomy while emphasizing the importance of turning anger into action at the ballot box. Groups will be on site to assist attendees with registering to vote in advance of the midterm elections.

“So many people are infuriated at the overturning of Roe V. Wade by the U.S. Supreme Court and the appalling steps being taken by states to restrict abortion, even without exceptions for rape or incest. However, some concerned citizens have not been engaged in voting or are not registered to vote. We want everyone to understand why it is important to make sure their voices are heard at the polls as well as in the streets,” said Rachel Bly, organizer of the event.

The local “We Won’t Go Back” Rally and Voter Registration Action is one of many similar actions being held around the country in partnership with Women’s March, Planned Parenthood, Move On, ACLU, Ultraviolet, Liberate Abortion, NARAL Pro-Choice America and the Service Employees International Union. To register for the Pensacola action and find other action across the nation, visit www.wewontgoback.com.
