The 2019 Women’s March Santa Rosa will rally and march in support of women’s rights, human rights for all, equality for LGBTQi+, freedom of religion & press, education, gun control, the environment, science, democracy and civil rights. While we have seen success in the 2018 mid-terms, Women’s March Santa Rosa continues in 2019 as our civil and reproductive rights are continually being threatened and we stand united with all those who fight for equality, justice and freedom for all.
