Activists protesting the upcoming Supreme Court decision against Rowe Wade rallied outside the home of two Conservative judges over the weekend and plan to do so over the weekend.
Nearly 100 protesters scanned and waved signs Saturday night outside the home of Brett Cavanaugh, Maryland Justice, then headed to the nearby home of Chief Justice John Roberts. Police finally ordered them to disperse when they returned to Cavanaugh’s home.
Protesters intervened after a draft opinion written by Judge Samuel Alito leaked half a century of denial of reproductive rights. Published by Politico. A final decision is expected by the end of June.
Activists are now holding other demonstrations outside the conservative Chambers of Justice every Monday and Wednesday.
The Shutdown DC organization declared surveillance at Alito’s home Monday night.
“Judge Alito thinks he can take away our rights. But our rights are fundamentally ours. We introduced ourselves to tell him personally“, – wrote the organization on Twitter.
უფი The Ruth Group Sent Us Organizes protests near the home of six conservative judges: three in Virginia and three in Maryland. The group’s name is a reference to the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
“If you want to join or lead a peaceful protest, let us know,” said a statement posted on its website.
Roberts and Cavanaugh declined to comment on the protest, according to Bloomberg.
“The court, as a political issue, does not consider security issues,” Supreme Court spokeswoman Patricia McCabe told Bloomberg on Friday.
