The annual Connecticut March for Life was held on Wednesday.

Almost two years after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade, more than a thousand abortion opponents rallied at the State Capitol.

They are fighting a proposed amendment to the state constitution that would guarantee abortion access.

"The stakes are too high to sit around and do nothing. We are a very powerful group of people when we speak collectively," says Chris Healy, the executive director of

Connecticut Catholic Conference.

Since the Roe decision, Connecticut has passed a shield law protecting doctors and patients from legal action.
