Both pro- and anti-Kavanaugh protesters gathered in and around the Dirksen Senate Office Building on Thursday to pressure Senate Judiciary Committee members to either vote for or against Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court confirmation.

Women’s March board member Linda Sarsour spoke with anti-Kavanaugh activists outside, while on the inside, police tried to manage protesters holding signs, chanting and singing. Democratic Sens. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Tammy Duckworth of Illinois also made appearances in front of the protesters. There were a number of individuals in support of Kavanaugh, including one woman in a “Women For Kavanaugh” T-shirt and another wearing one that said “I Stand With Brett.”
