Planned Parenthood Rally Tonight

Volunteers and supporters of Planned Parenthood will rally tonight (Feb. 21), from 5 pm-6pm at the organization's Columbia/Willamette's Regional Center (3727 NE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.), to protest the U.S. House of Representatives vote last Friday that would prevent Planned Parenthood from receiving any federal funds.
