The protestors are part of a group known as Bite Back, according to an editor for WTOP. The front line was comprised of people holding black umbrellas and a banner that read: "They cannot control our bodies."
The New York Post's Steven Nelson (formerly of the Washington Examiner) tweeted a video of the group chanting, "F*** the church, f*** the state, people must decide their fate." He also suggested that people tied with antifa were among the group and told the Washington Examiner he saw one carrying an antifa flag.

| • | Centrist Sens. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Susan Collins, R-Maine, suggested they were misled by Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch, two key votes in the decision to overturn Roe. |
