00:00Dozens of protesters rallied for women's reproductive rights in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, shortly
00:08after Donald Trump's presidential election win.
00:11Protesters fear Trump's administration will further restrict reproductive health care,
00:16including contraception and fertility treatments.
00:19I'm terrified.
00:20I'm worried that we are going to go back.
00:23And it's people like this that are giving me hope that maybe we won't.
00:28It does feel like we have a one-party system.
00:30I was, when I found out that Donald Trump was elected that night, I didn't expect it.
00:36It was completely out of the blue to me, and that could just be because of the bubble I
00:39was in.
00:40But I cried for days.
00:43And I needed to spring into action, and that's what brought me here.
00:45I believe that it's true that Trump will approve an abortion ban for the entire United States.
00:53And I'm here to fight back against that.
00:56I'm going to keep fighting, and he has threatened to throw protesters and people that disagree
01:03with him in prison, or have the military come after us.
01:08And this is a hill I'm willing to die on.
01:12This is my freedom.
01:13It breaks my heart.
01:14There are so many people that have come before us and have fought for our rights, and, you
01:20know, I would hate to let that legacy, I'd hate to let that go.
01:25So, you know, hopefully we can just keep on, keep fighting, and hope for a brighter day.
01:31Although Trump has declined to endorse a national abortion ban, he has said the decision should
01:36be left to individual states.
01:39On Wednesday, Trump was elected as the 47th U.S. President, capping a remarkable comeback
01:45four years after he was voted out of the White House.
