Democrat Rep. Judy Chu (D-CA) has been arrested by U.S. Capitol Police for โcrowding, obstruction, or incommodingโ during a pro-abortion protest in Washington D.C.
The Capitol Police department said they arrested 181 people after giving multiple warnings to demonstrators.
Protesters were blocking the intersection of First Street and Constitution Avenue near the Capitol and Supreme Court buildings.
Chu said: โThe decision to march today was easyโI came out to march for the young rape survivor, the woman who cannot afford to travel to another state to access critical care, the mother with an ectopic pregnancy whose life is in danger. I came out to march for all of us.
โIt was an honor to be arrested alongside these young women who are fighting tirelessly to protect our right to abortion. Itโs going to take all of us, but we will prevail!โ

Hollywood stars have also been losing their minds over the Supreme Courtโs decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Jimmy Kimmel promoted false claims about the SCOTUSโs plans on social media: โReady for birth control and same sex relationships to go away too?
โTHE CRAZY PEOPLE ARE TAKING OVER BECAUSE WE DONโT ACT!โ
Singer Taylor Swift also falsely alleged: โIโm absolutely terrified that this is where we are โ that after so many decades of people fighting for womenโs rights to their own bodies, todayโs decision has stripped us of that.โ
Bette Midler said: โThey did it. THEY DID IT TO US!โ
Hillary Clinton said: โMost Americans believe the decision to have a child is one of the most sacred decisions there is, and that such decisions should remain between patients and their doctors.
โTodayโs Supreme Court opinion will live in infamy as a step backward for womenโs rights and human rights.
However, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) was quick to drop the hammer on the Leftโs hysteria with some cold hard facts.
Jordan offered the proper perspective on the decision, which does not make abortion illegal as celebrities and Democrats are claiming, but rather leaves it up to the states.
โJoe Biden voted to let states overturn Roe v. Wade when he was in the Senate,โ Jordan said.
โInteresting!โ
And Jordan is right because in 1982 Joe Biden supported a constitutional amendment that would overturn Roe v. Wade and allow states to choose their own policies on abortion.
โI donโt like the Supreme Court decision on abortion. I think it went too far,โ Biden had told the Washingtonian magazine in 1974.
โI donโt think that a woman has the sole right to say what should happen to her body,โ Biden said as the youngest senator in his early 30s adding he was โreally quite conservative on most other issues.โ
In 1982 Biden was one of only two Democrat lawmakers supporting a constitutional amendment that would allow states to overturn Roe v Wade and pass their own laws on abortion.
โIโm probably a victim, or a product, however you want to phrase it, of my background,โ Biden said at the time.
Biden called his vote โthe single most difficult vote Iโve cast as a U.S. senator.โ
