妊娠中絶から憲法的な権利というステータスを剝奪した連邦最高裁判所の判決に対する抗議行動がワシントンの連邦最高裁判所前で行われ、参加していた、アレクサンドリア・オカシオ＝コルテス*2を含む民主党の下院議員たちが逮捕された。
Several prominent Democratic members of Congress were arrested on Wednesday during a protest in support of abortion rights in front of the supreme court, in the aftermath of the historic overturning of Roe v Wade last month.The politicians gathered in front of the US Capitol before marching to the court building, chanting “our bodies, our choice” and “we won’t go back”.
The group, which included the prominent progressives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib and Cori Bush, proceeded to stand along a crosswalk, or pedestrian crossing area, in front of the court, which is surrounded by a large black fence claimed to be unclimbable and erected to keep protesters away.
