What else happened during the protest

As per The Guardian, lawmakers stood outside the US Capitol on Tuesday, July 19, and chanted phrases like "we won't go back" and "our bodies, our choice." Aside from AOC, some other politicians present in the protest were Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib and Cori Bush. They were sitting in the middle of the street when a squad of police authorities surrounded them and announced that they will be arrested for creating an obstruction on the street. We wont back down! Members of the Democratic Women’s Caucus and CPD Action took a stand today against the attack on Women's bodies. We will do whatever it takes to protect reproductive freedom. We wont back down!

Authorities then began escorting the politicians present there to a location away from the street. Capitol Police reported that out of a total of 35 people taken into custody during the protests, 17 were Congress members.

If I was faking that, why would I intentionally first pump somebody? It’s so silly.” On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 , which proclaimed a constitutional right to abortion. With the new ruling, abortions have now been banned or are on the brink of being banned in 60 percent of American states. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
