Alpine residents protest Supreme Court decision on abortion

Dozens of protestors came out to make their voices heard Friday.

ALPINE, Texas — In wake of the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade Friday, Alpine residents lined the streets in protest.

Organizers put out the word in the afternoon and by 6 p.m. dozens of people had showed up with signs and determination.

The group said this is because the decision will impact a lot of people.

"We are angry. We believe that people deserve to have personal autonomy over their bodies and medical decisions," said Lisa Kettyle, a community organizer.
