Blowing shofars, Jewish lawmakers, rabbis hold abortion rights ‘sho-test'
WASHINGTON (RNS) — Blowing shofars, traditional Jewish instruments made from a ram's horn, a group of Jewish lawmakers, rabbis and activists proclaimed their support for abortion rights outside the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday (Sept. 14), insisting that access to abortion is a Jewish value. The event was one of many demonstrations dubbed 'sho-tests' to convene across the country by the National Council of Jewish Women in response to the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization to overturn abortion rights and looking ahead to November's midterm elections.
