Pro-choice activists in Sao Paulo took to the streets to show support for the Argentina landmark abortion ruling on August 8.

Nearly two months after lawmakers in the country's lower house of Congress approved the bill by a slim margin, senators will vote on whether to send the bill on to President Mauricio Macri.

If the bill is signed, the new legislation would significantly ease the traditionally Catholic country's abortion laws.

Despite pressure from the churches, the pro-abortion movement in Argentina is growing due to feminist dialogue brought to the mainstream.
