Crowds fill the streets of Washington, D.C. every year to
        March for Life. The proceedings begin around noon with a
        rally at the National Mall. It is followed by a march which

        travels down Constitution Avenue NW, turns right at First
        Street  NE, and then ends on the steps of the Supreme
        Court of the United States, where another rally is held.
