Activists on both sides of abortion issue to protest across U.S.
By Daniel Trotta NEW YORK (Reuters) - Anti-abortion groups have called demonstrations at more than 200 Planned Parenthood locations throughout the United States on Saturday to urge Congress and President Donald Trump to strip the women's health provider of federal funding. Planned Parenthood supporters in turn have organized 150 counter-demonstrations outside politicians' offices and government buildings. Anti-abortion activists have said they were energized by the election of Republican Trump, who selected their long-time ally Mike Pence as vice president and nominated conservative jurist Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court.
