A glitter bomb exploded all over the office of Republican Rep. Jeff Fortenberry’s Nebraska office Wednesday, in a strikingly immature effort by abortion activists to protest his pro-life stance.
“Congrats, you’ve earned this for trying to deny women their right to choice,” a note attached to the glitter bomb read. “Mind your own uterus.”
Fortenberry was voting on Capitol Hill when the glitter bomb exploded all over his Nebraska staffers, reported an Omaha news outlet.
“Nobody was injured, except now people have glitter on their clothes,” Fortenberry spokesperson Jennifer Allen told the outlet.
“You can certainly disagree with your member of Congress or any member of Congress, but this is pretty reckless and irresponsible,” she added. “It’s just a huge waste of everybody’s time and resources.”
The incident was reported to police, the U.S. postal inspector and the FBI.
In a more coherent act of protest, gay rights activists have targeted GOP candidates with glitter bombs. (RELATED: Glitter Bomber Goes After GOP Candidate)
