LaRochelle originally devised the visual project as a class assignment while they were a student at Concordia University in Montreal, where they live. This month, the site surpassed half a million submissions, with the United States alone accounting for more than 180,000 of the markers.

She reeled off a list of steps the Democratic majority has taken to expand abortion rights.
