Pro-abortion activists picket Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s home in “blatant act of intimidation”

Extreme pro-abortion activists have picketed the home of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in response to his role in refusing to block the recent pro-life Texas Heartbeat Act.

Around 50 militants massed outside Justice Kavanaugh’s family home last week, calling on him to resign, while also shouting “my body, my choice”. Activists also left pro-abortion graffiti on the pavement outside.

The militants were reportedly from the group Shut Down DC.

Two women from Students for Life, a pro-life group, who tried to interview some of the activists, received a hostile reception.

Justice Kavanaugh, who has served as a Supreme Court justice since 2018, being nominated by President Donald Trump, was one of five justices who refused to block the Texas Heartbeat Act.  

Last May, the Texas Heartbeat Act, prohibiting abortion when an unborn child’s heartbeat is detected, was signed into law by Republican Governor Greg Abbott – essentially limiting abortion over six weeks gestation, as reported by SPUC.

The Bill, which the Supreme Court voted not to block, came into effect this September.

The response of pro-abortion activists, politicians and anti-life extremists to the Texas Heartbeat Act has been extreme. In one instance, reported by SPUC, the CEO of an American video game company was “cancelled” and forced to resign after publicly supporting the pro-life Bill.

SPUC comment

A SPUC spokesperson said: “What took place outside of Justice Kavanaugh’s family home was a blatant act of intimidation, attempting to strongarm the highest judiciary in the land into supporting pro-abortion legislation.

“The attempt to ‘cancel’ pro-lifers, as well as justices who are simply upholding the law, is becoming all too common in the United States – but ‘cancel culture’ is also sadly present here in the UK too.

“As we can see, pro-abortion activists are turning to ever more extreme methods to trample the rights of the unborn and those who seek to uphold and defend their right to life.”
