The lip-syncing is interspersed with messages about Romney and the Republican Party's plans to defund Planned Parenthood and overturn Roe vs. Wade, among other threats to women's rights. Check out the awesome video, which was created by Citizens Band leader and activist Sarah Sophie Flicker, below!
