Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other Democrats spoke in front of the Supreme Court on Tuesday to rally abortion-rights activists. More protests are planned for 5 p.m. in state capitals across the country.
“Our Republican colleagues … have gone against the grain of the American people,” Klobuchar said. “They have gone against the grain of the women of America.”
Tensions rose throughout the morning as the two groups of demonstrators dueled to be the focal point of the media’s cameras. “Abortion is violence!” one side cheered. To which the other group yelled in reply, “Cite your sources!” “We didn’t expect this to happen,” said Chris Wachsmith, the middle school program director. “We kind of knew this was lingering. All year we’ve been talking about how this might be the fight we’re in but did not at all expect to be watching this today.”
Hundreds gathered outside the Supreme Court on May 2 following the news about a leaked draft opinion indicating that a majority of the court is prepared to overturn the right to abortion. Full-throated clusters of antiabortion activists at times squared up with the broader crowd, chanting, singing and waving their own signs.
