On Independence Day, protesters across the country marched for body independence in the wake of the Supreme Court decision upending the federal right to abortion. This decision allows states to drastically reduce or even outlaw abortion. Here in Moab, protesters at the Rally for Body Independence and Autonomy say they haven’t only lost a federal right – they’ve also lost a human right.
