WARSAW, POLAND—Polish women again donned black and took to the streets on Sunday, launching another round of protests against efforts by the nation’s conservative leaders to tighten Poland’s already restrictive abortion law. A large group gathered Sunday outside the parliament building in Warsaw, chanting “We have had enough!” Polish media reported that similar protests were happening in cities and towns across the country. The street protests are expected to continue on Monday, when some women also planning a strike, boycotting jobs and classes. Similar protests took place earlier this month against a proposal for a total ban on abortion. But lawmakers rejected that proposal after massive crowds of women dressed in black staged streets protests under their umbrellas in the rain.
